ON APPELLANT’S MOTION FOR REHEARING
BELCHER, Judge.The record as perfected shows that the statement of facts and formal bills of exception were timely filed in the trial court and are now properly before this Court.
The testimony of the state sufficiently shows that the appellant was guilty as charged. Testifying in his own behalf, the appellant denied that he was intoxicated and stated that his physical appearance was due to his diabetic condition.
Bill of Exception No. 1 shows that Witness Young was called by the appellant on the issue of his reputation for sobriety. The bill recites that if he had been permitted to do so, Witness Young would have testified that he was acquainted with the appellant and his general reputation in the community in which he lived for sobriety, and that said general reputation of the appellant for sobriety was good.
The trial court erred in sustaining the state’s objection and in excluding the proffered testimony. Jean v. State, 163 Texas Cr. Rep. 533, 294 S.W. 2d 406; Commarrillo v. State, 299 S.W. 2d 128; Barber v. State, 168 Texas Cr. Rep. 168, 324 S.W. 2d 553.
*263Appellant’s motion-for rehearing is granted and, for the error, pointed out, the judgment is reversed and the cause is remanded.-
Opinion approved by the Court.
