The verdict of tlie jury assessed tlie punishment at four years’ confinement in the penitentiary. The judgment of the court recites that appellant is condemned to confinement in the x>enitentiary for three years. The sentence is in proper form; it being recited therein that appellant is condemned to confinement for not less than two nor more than four years. The judgment is reformed in order that it may follow the verdict of the jury to show that appellant is condemned to confinement in the penitentiary for four years.

As reformed, the judgment is affirmed.
