John LOVAN v. STATE.
    (No. 9168.)
    (Court of Criminal Appeals of Texas.
    June 3, 1925.)
    Appeal from District Court, Jefferson County; Geo. C. O’Brien, Judge.
    D. A. Puckett, of Beaumont, for appellant. Tom Garrard, State’s Atty., and Grover C. Morris, Asst. State’s Atty., both of Austin, for the State.
   HAWKINS, J.

The indictment contained a number of counts, but the only one submitted charged that defendant sold whisky to- one Mil-sap. A conviction resulted, fixing the punishment at two years in the penitentiary. No complaint is made of the court’s charge, nor of any proceeding during- the trial. The evidence is undisputed that Milsap, working with the officers, bought whisky from defendant. The latter admitted the sale. The judgment is affirmed.
