On June 15, 1936, appellant entered into an appearance bond in the sum of one thousand dollars with H. G. Tankersley and J. J. Williams as sureties. Mark's case was set for trial on October 15, 1936. He failed to appear. His bond was forfeited and judgment nisi entered against him and his sureties. Upon proper notice the judgment nisi was made final on the 28th day of May, 1938, from which judgment Tankersley and Williams bring this appeal.
