MORRISON, Presiding Judge.

The offense is misrepresenting a written instrument affecting property as denounced by Article 1000, Vernon's Ann.P.C.

We are met at the outset with an objection to the court's charge, which we have concluded is determinative of this appeal.

The appellant did not testify or offer any evidence save that relating to his reputation for being a peaceable and law-abiding citizen.
