His defense of alibi was corroborated by the testimony of other witnesses.

No bills of exception are brought forward. The evidence is deemed sufficient to support the conviction.

The judgment is affirmed.

Affirmed.

The foregoing opinion of the Commission of Appeals has been examined by the Judges of the Court of Criminal Appeals and approved by the Court.
