Opinion

By the Courtt.

Keeping a tenement for the illegal sale of intoxicating liquors, and thereby making the tenement a nuisance, is a different offence from keeping such liquors for sale contrary to law, and a conviction of the offence last mentioned may take place, and proof of the same keeping may furnish proof of the nuisance. There is no plea in this case of autrefois convict; and if there were, it could not avail. See the cases cited by the Attorney General. Hxceptions overruled.
