On Rehearing.
Appellant insists that the affidavit upon which the original warrant was issued is not sufficient to support a conviction, and we are cited our case of Morrison v. State, 25 Ala. App. 330, 145 So. 582, in support of this contention. The law is as stated-in the Morrison Case and others, of similar import, but the affidavit is not void and its defects must be taken advantage of in the trial court by demurrer and cannot be raised in this court for the first time.
Application overruled.
On Remandment.
The Supreme Court now holds that the affidavit in this case charges no offense and that proceedings under it are void. On authority of Ex parte Emma Jane Slater v. State, 230 Ala. 320, 162 So. 130, tbe judgment in this case is reversed and a judgment will here be rendered discharging the defendant.
Reversed and rendered.
