   PER CURIAM

This appeal under the laws of the Virgin Islands is compulsory. Braffith v. People of Virgin Islands (C.C.A.3d 1928) 1 V.I. 582, 26 F.2d 646. In view of the prisoner’s plea of guilty entered to a charge of murder in the first degree, our inquiry on this appeal has been directed, and limited, to a search for fundamental irregularities in the proceeding and to a possible abuse by the court of its discretion in determining the punishment. Braffith v. People of Virgin Islands, supra. On our review of the record, made with a care which the gravity of the case required, we found no errors of either kind.

The judgment must therefore be affirmed.
