*351The deceased, Lilborn Tilson, and his wife operated a beer tavern in Houston.

At one A.M. on the night of March 20, 1954, Tilson closed his place of business and drove to his home with the money he took from his cash register. Some of the money was in bills, which he had in his pocket. The change was in a sack.

Shots from a small caliber gun were heard by neighbors and Tilson was found lying at the side of his automobile parked in his driveway. He died shortly thereafter from the effect of gunshot wounds in his body.
