    (129 So. 712)
    DODD v. STATE.
    6 Div. 755.
    Court of Appeals of Alabama.
    June 24, 1930.
    Rehearing Denied Aug. 19, 1930.
    
      Roy Mayhall, of Haleyville, for appellant.
    Charlie C. McCall, Atty. Gen., for the State.
   SAMFORD, J.

Charge 1 refused to defendant states the policy of the law as it has been many times declared, but is an argument, and its refusal will never justify a reversal when the trial judge has instructed the jury fully as to the law of the case as was done in this trial.

Refused charge 3 is misleading, and was properly refused.

It is true, as contended by the appellant, that the conviction in this case rests solely upon the testimony of a special deputy, who carried a “blue card” issued by the chief law enforcement officer, but that fact is not ground for impeachment. This testimony, if believed by the jury, was sufficient upon which to prediéate a verdict. The testimony was direct and unequivocal that the defendant was present and participating in the crime charged, and, while there were many witnesses testifying for defendant tending to establish an alibi, the decision is not for us.

It was competent for the state to prove by the witness Duncan that he had seen the still in question a few days before the date on which defendant is charged with being present. The offense charged in count 2 is continuing, and evidence of the existence of the still prior to and at the time defendant was found there is a part of the res gestee.

Other exceptions reserved are without merit.

We find no error in the record, and the judgment is affirmed.

Affirmed.
