¶1 Appellant was convicted in the District Court of Polk County of perjury, and his punishment fixed at two years in the penitentiary.
¶2 Appellant was indicted for giving false testimony before the grand jury in its investigation of a charge against one Ash for the illegal sale of liquor. It was in proof by a number of witnesses that appellant went before the grand jury and testified that Ash at a certain date did sell to him intoxicating liquors and that one Smithers was present at the time. It was also shown as a predicate for his appearance before the grand jury that appellant made a statement in writing to the county attorney in which he made substantially the, same statement that he made before the grand jury. Witnesses testified that after Ash was indicted appellant appeared as a witness *603 on the trial and swore that Ash did not at any time sell him any liquor. Ash testified that he at no time sold appellant any intoxicating liquor. The man Smithers, claimed by appellant when before the grand jury to have been present at the sale of liquor by Ash to him, testified for the.State upon the instant trial that he never was present on any occasion when Ash sold' any liquor to appellant. The conviction followed.
¶3 There are six bills of exception, the first of which complains of the testimony of the county attorney that appellant came to his office with two other men just prior to the time he testified before the grand jury and made a written statement and swore to it in which he stated that he purchased intoxicating liquor from Ash and a man named Evans. The bill of exceptions shows that the only objections offered by appellant were that this was an ex parte affidavit made about another case then under investigation, and that same was not a confession. Neither of these objections as stated by appellant’s attorney when the evidence was offered in any way substantiated in the bill. "We are relegated to the facts and objections stated in the bill in determining the error complained of. If the statement had been made before the county attorney when another case was under investigation, we are unable to perceive how it would not be admissible as persuasive of the fact that appellant made the same statement shortly thereafter before the grand jury. We think the bill of exceptions presents no error.
¶4 We have considered each of the other five bills of exception but have found nothing in any of them that seems to call for discussion on our part. One Keen was permitted to testify that he had a conversation with appellant on the morning of the trial and that appellant told him then that Ash had not sold any liquor to him. This same witness testified that when Ash was on trial on a charge of selling liquor to appellant testify that he had not purchased liquor -from Ash. The witness Close was permitted to testify that he was present and heard appellant testify the same thing. Another bill is to the refusal of the court to permit appellant to ask a witness if he knew the condition of defendant’s mind. There was no plea of insanity.
¶5 No error appearing in the record, the judgment of the trial court will be in all things affirmed.
¶6 Affirmed.
