Opinion

HAWKINS, J.

Conviction is for selling intoxicating liquor; punishment being two years in the penitentiary.

No bills of exception are found in the record. The state’s evidence is positive that appellant made the sale of intoxicating liquor to the alleged purchaser. Appellant did not testify and offered no defensive testimony. He sought by cross-examination of the state’s witnesses to raise a suspicion that a negro made the sale. The evidence amply supports the verdict.

The judgment is affirmed.
