Pearsok, C. J.

¶1We have examined the record and see ím error. We have considered the two points made in the statement of the case as grounds for a venire de novo and are satisfied that neither of them is tenable. In fact both of them are so plain as not to admit of discussion.

¶2This will be certified, to the end that judgment may be pronounced agreeable to law.

¶3Per Curiam. Judgment affirmed.
