John PRANKS v. STATE.
    (No. 10253.)
    (Court of Criminal Appeals of Texas.
    June 23, 1926.
    Rehearing Denied Oct. 20, 1926.)
    Appeal from District Court, Payette County; M. C. Jeffrey, Judge.
    J. P. Hair, of San Antonio, for appellant.
    Sam D. Stinson, State’s Atty., of Austin, and Robt. M. Lyles, Asst. State’s Atty., of Groesbeck, for the State.
   LATTIMORE, J.

Conviction in district court of Payette county of assault to murder; punishment, 12 years in the penitentiary. The record is before us, without any statement of facts or bills of exception. The indictment being in proper form, and the charge of the court correctly presenting the law, the judgment will be affirmed.

On Motion for Rehearing.

Appellant presents only the proposition that we erred in holding that this case was properly transferred from Bastrop county to Payette county on change of venue. We have examined the transcript on change of venue and the orders made by the court, but are unable to agree with appellant’s contention, and the motion for rehearing is overruled.
