1Opinion of the CourtOvebton, J.

Byron, W. Bobert, and Eustice Dunn were indicted by the grand jury of the parish of Calcasieu for the murder of Sam E. Duhon. The case was tried only as relates to Byron and W. B. Dunn, the state having elected not to bring Eustice Dunn to trial, when the ease was called. The jury found both Byron and W. B. Dunn guilty as charged, and, upon this verdict, they were sentenced to death. Both have appealed to .this court, and rely upon a number of bills of exception for a reversal of the verdict of the jury and the sentence pronounced against them.
