   DAVIDSON, Presiding Judge.

The indictment alleges an assault to murder by appellant upon Isabella Applewhite. The alleged injured party, by reason of being an unpardoned ex-convict, was not permitted to testify. The witness Harper (only witness in the case) testified he did not know the name of the injured party, and there is no evidence in the record as. to what her name was or is. It is necessary that the indictment allege the name of the injured party, or that it is unknown, and the evidence offered must correspond with the allegation. Young v. State, 30 Texas Crim. App., 308.

A bill of exceptions was reserved to the manner of examining the witness- Harper in regard to asking leading and suggestive questions. We are of opinion that the questions were subject to the exceptions taken, and should have been excluded, but they refer to the identification of the assaulted party whose name was not proved, nor any testimony introduced showing that she was named as alleged. Should, upon another trial, the name be proved, the matters mentioned in the bill of exceptions will not occur.

For the errors mentioned, the judgment is reversed and the cause is remanded.

Reversed and remanded.
