It has been made known to this court by the sheriff of Cochran county that on the first day of May, 1935, the' appellant es caped from the jail of said county and is still at large. Under the terms of article 824, C. C. P., as amended by Acts of 1933, c. 34 (Vernon's Ann. C. C. P. art. 824), and article 825, the escape of the appellant deprives this court of jurisdiction of the appeal, and it is therefore dismissed.
