This is a proceeding in error brought to reverse a judgment of the common pleas court affirming a conviction of plaintiff in error, before *661a police justice, on an affidavit charging her with keeping a place where intoxicating liquors were sold, purchased and given away contrary to the provisions of the Beal law (95 O. L. 87; Rev. Stat. 4364-20 et seq.; Lan. 7259 et seq.).
It is said that the affidavit is defective in that it does not state that'-, the accused “knowingly” kept said place.
We hold that an averment of scienter is not necessary in an affidavit; or indictment charging.a violation of the Beal law, so called.
A full consideration of the authorities on this subject will be found in the ease of State v. Fromer, 6 Dec. 374 (7 N. P. 172), decided by Judge Wildman, then common pleas judge of Huron county, now one of the judges of the circuit court of Ohio, sixth circuit.
It is also said that the judgment is not sustained by the evidence, but this proposition we are unable to review for the bill of exceptions does not contain all the evidence. This is no fault of counsel for plaintiff in error. It appears that trial was begun on August 3, 1906, the accused having no counsel present. After some evidence had been offered the trial was adjourned to August 10, with consent of the defendant. On the last-named day the defendant was present with her counsel who made an effort to bring out all the evidence that had been offered at the previous hearing, by a re-examination of the only wit-nesá who had then testified. At the conclusion of this effort the court said:
“You have substantially proved everything that he testified to before in this case in chief; may not be in the exact language, but the substantial points of that evidence you have in.”
The certificate to the bill, of exceptions recites:
“This bill of exceptions contains all of the substantial points of the testimony of the witness, F. P. Merrill, taken on August 3,1906, and all of the evidence offered by either party on August 10,1906, in the trial of this, cause.” We are compelled to say that the certificate does not authorize us to weigh the evidence contained in the bill of exceptions presented to us. It is- not sufficient that we have before us what the trial judge considers all the “substantial points of the testimony,” but we should’ have all the evidence. The reviewing court might not agree with the-, trial judge as to what were the real substantial points of the testimony. The certificate in this ease substitutes the judgment of the trial judge: on that point for the judgment of this court, leaving us unable to pass upon the weight of the evidence with any satisfaction to ourselves or-certainty of arriving at a correct conclusion.
*662The plaintiff in error was content to rest this matter in the judgment of the trial judge and there it must remain and the judgment must be affirmed.
