Opinion

Gardner, J.

This case is here on exception to the judgment of the superior court of Fulton County overruling the certiorari. The defendant was convicted of maintaining and operating a lewd house. His complaint is to the insufficiency of the evidence to support the verdict. The evidence involved illicit relations of yonng women and high-school boys, at the instance and promotion of the defendant, a mature, married man. It would serve no good purpose to detail the evidence here. It was ample to show that the defendant operated the house for the unlawful purpose charged, and was so depraved as to accept from the parties engaged in such conduct the price of 50 cents each on each occasion. The evidence further showed that this conduct of operating the house had been carried on continuously for some time before the arrest of the defendant. The evidence was uneontroverted, save only by the statement of the defendant.

Judgment affirmed.

Broyles, G. J., and MacIntyre, J., concur.
