CATES, Presiding Judge
(concurring specially).
In brief appellant complains of the District Attorney’s asking Mrs. Self how many days was it after appellant’s escape from a Georgia prison that she dyed his hair. I consider that prejudicial and irrelevant in a case where the defendant has chosen not to testify.
However, the District Attorney offered to connect up the sought for answer with further proof. Such further proof was not tendered. In this posture the defendant should have made a motion to exclude the disconnected evidence. McElroy, Evid. (2nd ed.) §426.01(6).
