   MORROW, Presiding Judge.

To warrant the consideration of the statement of facts, the approval of the trial judge is imperative. See Vernon’s Ann. Tex. C. C. P., 1925, Vol. 3, Art. 760, p. 103, note 24; also Barnes v. State, 102 Tex. Crim. Rep. 155; Boles v. State, 102 Tex. Crim. Rep. 634.

Perceiving no error in the record presented for review, the judgment is affirmed.
