WALLACE v. STATE.

BROWN, P.J.

Any witness familiar by experience with the appearance and treatment of wounds, particularly physicians and surgeons, may give an opinion as to the manner in which a wound was probably inflicted and the instrument used. Rash v. State, 61 Ala. 89 -93; Underhill's Cr. Ev. § 312; 1 Greenl. Ev. 440; Pearce v. State, 14 Ala. App. 120, 72 So. 213. The testimony of the state's witness, Dr. Lindsey, was within the rule. It is permissible for a witness to testify that one was drunk, or "acted like he was drunk." 1 Mayf. Dig. 336, § 37.

Counsel for appellant have submitted no brief or argument, and we have carefully examined the record and find no reversible error therein, or anything further that warrants discussion.

Affirmed.
