Syllabus

<p>Yagbanct. Common gambler. Evidence.</p> <p>In a trial for vagrancy, evidence that defendant had been convicted of gambling three or four times within two years next preceding the date of the indictment, is not sufficient to prove that he was a common gambler, there being nothing to show that he made a business of gambling or that he was á “person, who for the most part, maintained himself by gambling.”</p>
