Head Matter:
George Richardson v. The State.
No. 5106.
Decided June 28, 1918.
Burglary—Sufficiency of the Evidence.
Where, upon trial of burglary, the evidence sustained the conviction, there was no reversible error.
Appeal from the Criminal District Court of Dallas. Tried below before the Hon. Robt. B. Seay.
Appeal from a conviction of burglary; penalty, two years imprisonment in the penitentiary.
The opinion states the case.
No brief on file for appellant.
E. B. Hendricks, Assistant Attorney General, for the State.

Opinion:
DAVIDSON, Presiding Judge.
Appellant was convicted of burglary and allotted two years in the penitentiary.
The record being without bills of exception, or exceptions to the charge of the court, we are relegated to the question made by the motion for new trial, that the evidence is insufficient. We deem it unnecessary to state the testimony, but conclude, from a careful revision of the evidence, the jury was justified in reaching their conclusion. The house was burglarized and the property of the oivner taken. A short time after the burglary appellant was found in possession of the stolen goods, and pawned them. The evidence, we think, is sufficient to connect the appellant with the burglary under the authorities, and the judgment will be affirmed.
Affirmed.
