The name of the officer alleged in the. indictmént to have been resisted appears as James H. *162McKenzie, and be is described in tbe indictment as a deputy sheriff: of Mobile county, Ala. The evidence introduced on the trial showed that the officer who was resisted was J. H. McKenzie, and that he was deputy sheriff of Mobile county, Ala. The identity of the officer Avas supplemented and established by the descriptive averment that he was a deputy sheriff of Mobile county, Ala.; there was no dispute on the trial of the identity of the party; and this did not constitute such a variance as to entitle the defendant to the general charge.- — Knight v. State, 147 Ala. 104, 41 South. 911; Sewell v. State, 82 Ala. 57, 2 South. 622; Franklin v. State, 52 Ala. 414; Roden v. State, 5 Ala. App. 247, 59 South. 751.
The entire transaction from the time the state’s witnesses testified to the defendant’s having committed an offense in the presence of the deputy sheriff up to the time his arrest was finally effected is shown by the evidence to be but one continuing occurrence or transaction, and evidence of the defendant’s actions and statements during this period was competent evidence and relevant, as- having a tendency to establish his guilt or innocence of the offense charged. The conduct of the defendant during this period and what he said would be explanatory of his conduct or actions in resisting arrest.
It was entirely competent to show by the witness Lynch that the defendant continued to threaten and to refuse to submit to arrest after being taken into custody by this witness, who, as a deputy sheriff, had assisted in finally arresting the defendant for the original offense with which he was charged, after he had shortly before resisted arrest at the hands of deputy sheriff McKenzie. This was so closely and intimately connected with the whole transaction as to form a part of *163it. The evidence introduced in rebuttal by tire state, to which, objection was made, was clearly competent as being in rebuttal of matters brought out in the evidence by the defendant.
It sufficiently appears from other portions of the testimony that the “female” in whose presence the defendant used profane or abusive language was a woman, and there is no merit in the defendant’s contention that he was entitled to the general charge because one of the witnesses used the word “female” in designating the presence in which the language was used. There was sufficient evidence to show that the defendant committed an offense in the presence of the arresting officer, and that the defendant knew-he was an officer and with this knowledge resisted arrest, and the court properly submitted the question of the defendant’s guilt to the jury.
The rulings of the court on the defendant’s motion for a new trial are not reviewable here. — Herndon v. State, 2 Ala. App. 118, 56 South. 85.
