For the State it was shown that appellant and the injured party were co-tenants on the same place, and that appellant shot prosecuting witness Barnhart with a shotgun at a distance of twenty-six feet without cause or provocation; that some of these shots penetrated the body of said Barnhart and inflicted on him serious bodily injury.
Believing the evidence sufficient, the judgment is affirmed.
Affirmed.
