    No. 27,494.
    March 23, 1955
    
      Gordon Griffin, Jr., Brownwood, for appellant.
    
      Firman H. Smith, County Attorney, Brownwood, and Leon Douglas, State’s Attorney, Austin, for the state.
   DAVIDSON, Judge.

This is a conviction for unlawfully selling beer in Brown County, a dry area; the punishment, a fine of $500 and one year in jail.

The statement of facts in this case has been searched in vain for any evidence showing that Brown County, where the sale is alleged to have been made, is a dry area Within the meaning of the Texas Liquor Control Apt. And it does not appear that appellant waived proof of such dry status.

In order for this conviction to be sustained, proof of the dry status must be proven or established by agreement of the pari ties. Allen v. State, 136 Texas Cr. R. 462, 126 S.W. 2d 485; O’Rear v. State, 147 Texas Cr. R. 607, 183 S.W. 2d 570; Jones v. State, 154 Texas Cr. R. 88, 225 S.W. 2d 190.

Because the evidence does not sustain. the conviction, the judgment is reversed and the cause is remanded.
