Court of Criminal Appeals of Texas December 11, 1902, No. 2687. (Johnson v. State)

HENDERSON, Judge.

Appellant was convicted of murder in the first degree, and his punishment assessed at death.

Appellant’s first bill of exceptions questions the action of the court-overruling his motion for continuance, and in refusing a new trial based thereon. The motion for continuance was based on the absence of one John Mills.
