The offense is robbery by assault; the punishment, confinement in the penitentiary for life. The indictment contained allegations of five prior felony convictions, but the case was submitted to the jury on the first count charging robbery by assault.

The injured party testified that he met the appellant in a Texarkana beer drinking establishment, that appellant boarded the bus with him saying that he was going to New Boston, but that, to1 his surprise, the appellant got off the bus when he did at Hooks. He further testified that appellant followed him from the bus stop until they got into the dark and there robbed him of his pocketboolc and cut him across the face and the stomach. The testimony of a deputy sheriff taken at a former trial was introduced in which he related that he had seen appellant and the injured party get off the bus on the night in question, that some short time thereafter appellant had been turned over to him by some of the guards at the nearby Red River Arsenal, that his clothes were bloody, and that a knife taken from him had blood on it.

The Sheriff of Bowie County testified that he searched appellant in the jail, and in a bag hanging between his legs he had found a poclcetbook containing the injured party’s identification papers, together with the identical amount of money the injured party said he had lost.

The appellant did not testify nor did he offer any witnesses in his behal'f.

The record is before us without bills of exception.

The evidence is deemed sufficient to support the conviction; and, the proceedings appearing regular on their face, the judgment of the trial court is affirmed.
