Brashers, in fear of life and bodily injury, fraudulently take from him without his consent, the sum of $2374 in money with the fraudulent intent to then and there deprive the injured party of the value of the same and with the intent to appropriate it to appellant’s use and benefit.
The record contains no bills of exception and no brief has been filed on appellant’s behalf.
No error is perceived.
The judgment is affirmed.
