## Opinion text

HaediN, J.:
I concur in the opinion of brother Baeicer. This being a penal action the plaintiff should present clear and cogent evidence to bring his case clearly and completely within the letter and spirit of the statute. Because he did not make out his case according to such requirements of the rule in penal actions the judgment was properly reversed by the County Court.
Judgment of County Court affirmed.
