Syllabus

<p>1. The statute against disposing oí an animal coining within the meaning of an estray, without first complying with the laws regulating estrays, (Paschal’s Digest, Article 24.41,) provides (by reference to the next preceding article) that the punishment shall be by fine not exceeding double the value of the animal. A conviction under this article cannot be sustained when there was no evidence of the value of the animal. (Thorp v. The State, 28 Texas, 697, approved so far as this ruling is involved.)</p>
