SHERWOOD, P. J.

¶1Indicted for murder in the first degrée, for that he shot to death with.a revolver one J. P. Stith, defendant was found guilty of manslaughter in the fourth degree and his punishment assessed at two years imprisonment in the penitentiary. At the last term of this court, we affirmed the judgment of the trial court on the grounds that the bill of exceptions lacked proper authentication, and that there was no error in the record .proper, and so stated in an opinion filed at that term.

¶2Since then, however, we have discovered that the . transcript contains neither an entry of a judgment against, nor of sentence passed upon, defendant. In consequence of this discovery, and pursuing the like course as pursued in State v. Holland, 160 Mo. 667, we *335order the submission set aside, and remand this cause to the lower court, with directions to enter up judgment on the verdict and pass sentence on defendant, as required and provided by law.

All concur.
