Case No. 15,063.

UNITED STATES v. EVANS.

[1 Cranch, C. C. 55.]1

Circuit Court, District of Columbia.

Jan. Term, 1802.

INFORMATION—AMENDMENT.

An information may be amended.

The information was amended by filling up the blank of the fete of the commission of the offence. The same amendment was also permitted in the cases of U. S. v. Howard, U. S. v. Smith, and U. S. v. Zimmerman [unreported]. Leave was given to the defendants to plead de novo; and a continuance allowed at their request.

THE Court, also, in this case, gave leave to amend the information, by describing the particular kind of liquor sold.
