Conviction for violating the local option law. Appellant gave witness Day an order for a C.O.D. express package, held by the American Express Company. Day presented the order, paid the money, and obtained four quarts of whisky. The order is in the following language: "Mr. Walton, or Walter Wilson. Sir: Please let Mr. J. Day have my package as I have no one to stay hear for me. Yours resp. Pony Jackson." Walton testified that he was express agent, and had no recollection of the transaction, even after looking at his books, but his books were correctly kept, and all items entered in them were made in accordance with the facts shown by the entries; and it showed that Day presented the order in question and received and receipted for the package in question. It is objected that the testimony of Walton was inadmissible, and that the entry on the books should not thus be used. We are of opinion that the ruling of the court was correct. The books were shown to have been correctly kept, and this was not questioned.
It is also contended that the evidence is not sufficient. We are of opinion that it is. The question raised by this evidence has been so *Page 249 frequently decided that we deem it unnecessary to cite authorities. There being no error in the record, the judgment is affirmed.
Affirmed.
