E. Reporter, Vol. 38, p. 574, which opinion, however, was recalled, as evidenced by another opinion in same case, going back to the original doctrine of Lee v. People, 140 Ill. 536. The question here involved was considered by this court in Pemberton v. The People, 63 Ill. App. 218, where it was held an appeal in such cases did not lie from the County to the Circuit Court.\nThe judgment is affirmed.",
