DAVIDSON, P. J.

¶1From a conviction of murder and an assessed punishment of seven years, appellant prosecutes this appeal.

¶2The only question presented for revision is the insufficiency of the evidence to constitute the offense under the law. Inasmuch as the testimony does not accompany the record and is not before the court, this question cannot be reviewed or revised. As the case presents itself, the judgment will be affirmed.
