Mrs. Jesus Duran v. The State.
    No. 21822.
    Delivered January 28, 1942.
    The opinion states the case.
    
      B. L. Jeffrey and Wm. H. Davis, both of Carrizo Springs, and John T. Spann and G. C. Jackson, both of Crystal City, for appellant.
    
      Spurgeon E. Bell, State’s Attorney, of Austin, for the State.
   GRAVES, Judge.

Appellant was convicted of a sale of whisky in a dry area, and fined the sum of $100.00.

There are many propositions presented in the record that are written upon in our No. 21962, Jesus Duran v. State, this day decided, (Page 177 of this volume) that record being in many respects similar to this cause. There was no- proof offered herein relative to the dry status of Dimmit County, nor did the charge of the court require the jury to find that a sale was made to J. M. Rich, the person to whom the complaint and information alleged such sale to have been made. This court’s remarks in the opinion in our cause No. 21962, Jesus Duran v. State, are appropriate herein, and for the same errors as therein set forth, this judgment is reversed and the cause remanded.
