1Opinion of the Court

LATTIMORE, Judge.

— Appellant was convicted in the District Court of Kaufman County of murder, and his punishment fixed at ninety-nine years in the penitentiary.

That the omission of the seal on the writ issued by the clerk of the trial court commanding service by the sheriff of a copy of the indictment, is not a material error, was recently decided in substance by this court in Adams v. State, No. 7349, opinion handed down March 14, 1923, in which case the Ollora case, 60 Texas Crim. Rep., 217, was reviewed and to some extent overruled and the Luster ease, 63 Texas Crim. Rep. 541, was approved.
