This is an appeal from the district court of Pontotoc county, wherein, on the 28th day of January, 1921, plaintiff in error was convicted of the crime of rape and sentenced to serve a term of 8 years' imprisonment in the state penitentiary. From such judgment of conviction, he has appealed to this court. *Page 273

A copy of the said parole and acceptance of same are attached to the motion to dismiss the appeal.
