    KENNISON, Appellant, v. STATE.
    (No. 8264.)
    (Court of Criminal Appeals of Texas.
    March 26, 1924.)
    Appeal from District Court, Lamar County; Ben H. Denton, Judge.
    J. E. Kennison was convicted of forgery, and he appeals.
    Reversed and remanded.
    Sturgeon, Sturgeon & West, of Paris, for appellant.
    Tom Garrard, State’s Atty., and Grover C. Morris, Asst. State’s Atty., both of Austin, for the State.
   HAWKINS, J.

Appellant is under conviction for forgery with an assessed punishment of two years in the penitentiary.

The instrument alleged to have been forged is a check dated February 3, 1923, drawn on the Lamar State Bank & Trust Company of Paris, Tex., payable to J. E. Kennison for the Sum of $12.50, and purporting to have been signed by Claude S. Wright.

During the trial prosecuting officers were permitted to prove that they had appellant brought from the jail to the county attorney’s ofiice and there under direction of such officers he wrote certain names, figures, and words which were introduced in evidence and used as a standard of comparison of the handwriting of appellant over his objection. The point at issue is the exact one considered by us in the companion case against the same defendant numbered 8263, 260 S. W. 174, wherein we concluded that the court was in error in permitting the reception of the evidence complained of. We refer to the opinion in the other case for the discussion of the question and the conclusion reached. The date of the opinion is March 26, 1924.

For the same reasons therein stated the judgment in the present case must be reversed and the cause remanded.
