    Nov. 6, 1935.

   MORROW, Presiding Judge.

The conviction is for the unlawful possession of intoxicating liquor for -the purpose of sale; penalty assessed at confinement in the penitentiary for one year.

It has been made known to this court by the affidavit of the county attorney of Taylor county, dated October 12, 1935, that the appellant is dead, having died after his appeal was perfected. The death of the appellant deprives this court of jurisdiction of the appeal.

Therefore, the appeal is abated.
