I know whiskey when I smell it.\u201d The defendant at the time was about one hundred yards from his dwelling-house. Testimony to like effect was given by O. W. Hinton, also a deputy sheriff. Defendant testified that he had no whiskey, but what he had was vinegar. One of the counts in the bill of indictment was that defendant did unlawfully \u201cpossess intoxicating liquors.\u201d For this he was convicted.\nThe defendant in his brief contends: \u201cThe court erred in charging as follows: Tt is unlawful for one to have intoxicating liquors in his possession outside of his dwelling-house in any quantity/ instead of charging as follows: 'It is unlawful for one to have intoxicating liquors in his possession outside of his dwelling-house in any quantity for an illegal purpose.\u2019 \u201d\nThe charge as given is now well settled law in this jurisdiction. S. v. Sigmon, 190 N. C., 684; S. v. Pierce, 192 N. C., 766; S. v. Hege, ante, 526.\nThe charge of the court below is full, fair, and accurate, and gave defendant every right that he was entitled to under the' law. \u00a5e can find\nNo error.",
