In July, 1936, J. B.- Williams was slain in his home at Pensacola by some unknown person. He held a policy of insurance with appellant at,the time of his death which provided double indemnity to the beneficiary .in the event of his accidental death but subject to Paragraph 10 of Section 57 of its by-laws, as follows:

, “Tenth. That Association shall not be liable for. the payment of double indemnity under any beneficiary certificate of the death of the member of accident where it is claimed that death resulted from accidental drowning, cutting, poisoning, hanging, inhalation Of gas, discharge of firearms, or shooting, unless'tlie fact that such drowning, cutting, poisoning, hanging, inhalation of gas, discharge .of firearms or shooting was accidental shall be established’by the testimony of at least-one person other than the'member, who was an eye witness to such drowning, cutting, poisoning, hanging, inhalation of gas, discharge of firearms or shooting.” , .

" Appellant declined to-pay the policy on "the theory''that Alean Williams, the beneficiary and wife- of' the decéased, was accessory to his death and, being so, the quoted provision barred her from . collecting any part of it. Alean Williams brought this1 action to recover..double the amount named in the face of the policy on the theory that J. B. Williams came to his death by. accidental, means.’ There w.as. a. plea to the declaration which.seeks relief.jr-om payment- of. the.policy on the ground that plaintiff was accessory *78 to the murder of her husband. A trial resulted in a verdict and judgment for plaintiff. Defendant sued out writ of error.

Ten questions are urged for reversal but they all revolve around and turn on the proof in support of the affirmative defense of defendant, viz., that plaintiff was accessory to the murder of her husband.

It is admitted that the insured came to his death by mysterious means. It is not denied that he was murdered in his own home but there is a complete failure in the proof to connect defendant in error with the murder. It matters not what else was proven or what othér error may have been committed; if there was failure on this point the case falls. We have examined the other questions but find no reversible error.

Affirmed.
