    JEFFERSON v. STATE.
    No. 19068.
    Court of Criminal Appeals of Texas.
    June 2, 1937.
    
      W. J. Flesher, of Amarillo, for appellant.
    Lloyd W. Davidson, State’s Atty., of Austin, for the State.
   LATTIMORE, Judge.

Conviction for assault to murder; punishment, two years in the penitentiary.

The record is here without any statement of facts. Appellant complains by bill of exceptions No. 1 of the refusal of a second application for a continuance. In the absence of a statement of facts, this court is unable to appraise said bill. For aught we know, the absent witnesses may have appeared and given testimony upon the trial.

Complaint is made in another bill of exceptions of paragraph 3 of the charge of the trial court. We-see nothing wrong with said paragraph, which presents an ordinary proposition defining an assault and battery. As a part' of said bill of exceptions, complaint is also made of paragraph 9 of the charge. We have examined said paragraph, and it seems to us to announce a correct proposition of law.

■ Appellant’s bill of exceptions No. 3 complains of the refusal of a special charge asked to be given in lieu of that contained in paragraph 9 of the court’s charge, which is above referred to. We do not see any material difference between the principle of law embodied in the special charge and that contained in paragraph 9 of the charge as given. We see no error in refusing special charge No. 2, which sought to have the jury told that the use of any unlawful violence upon the person of another with intent to injure him is an assault.

Finding no error in the record, the judgment is affirmed.
