Agents act- ing for principals are liable for ofi‘enses committed against the statutes. Direct- ors are but agents of a corporation,and if they personally commit an offense or aid and abet in its commission, upon this principle they are clearly indicta- ble as principals.” The defendants are allowed to with- draw their demurrer and plead anew to the indictment. ———-—-——00 Fire in Winnlpauk.
