Written by the judges who cited it.
The opinion
I am unable to reconcile the majority opinion herein with the former opinion of this Court in Kirkland v. State, 86 Fla. 130 ; 97 So.2d Rep. 510, in respect to the construction to be placed under Section 5354, Revised General Statutes 1920.
I therefore dissent, but express no opinion as to whether the indictment herein is good as against a motion to quash.
