Opinion
It was sufficient to prove that the offence charged was committed during a substantial part of the time named in the complaint. Commonwealth v. Kerrissey, 141 Mass. 110. The use of the word “ continually ” was unnecessary. It does not change or affect the identity of the offence charged, and it may be disregarded as surplusage.
Exceptions overruled.
