DAVIDSON, P. J.

¶1Relator was arrested, charged with homicide, and resorted to writ of habeas corpus for the purpose of obtaining bail, and upon a hearing he was remanded to custody, and prosecutes this appeal.

¶2In matters of this sort it is the practice of this court not to discuss the evidence and the weight to be attached to it. After a careful reading of the statement of facts, we are of Opinion that the court was in error, and that relator is entitled to bail.

¶3The judgment is reversed, and bail is • granted in the sum of $10,000; the bond to be approved by the sheriff of Dallas -county.
