State v. Broyles, 17 S.C.L. 134 (N.C. Ct. App. 1828).

Opinion

Nott, J.

I should have given the act a different construction myself: but as a majority of the Court, concurring with the presiding Judge, have given it a construction consistent with the rule that penal statutes are to be construed strictly, I am not dissatisfied with being in a minority.

Motion granted.
