## Opinion text

TILLMAN PEARSON, Judge
(dissenting in part).
I concur in all of the holdings in this opinion, except the holding that the evidence was sufficient to support the judgment as to appellant Stewart. It is my view that the conclusion that Stewart, as the owner of the building, must have been aiding or assisting Brown in conducting a lottery is speculation. Cf., Broadnax v. State, Fla. 1952, 57 So.2d 651 .
