Jones, sheriff of said county, under a commitment issued by the county judge of said county, sitting as an examining magistrate, based upon a preliminary examination held upon complaint, wherein petitioners were charged with the murder of one Albert Edwards by striking the said Albert Edwards with an automobile while the said petitioners were driving the said automobile on the public highway of Dewey county in an intoxicated condition.

Upon the hearing on the return of the writ, held on June 17, 1926, it was considered, ordered, and adjudged that said petitioners are entitled to bail, and that the bail of each petitioner be fixed at $15,000, bond to be conditioned as by law provided, and, upon the approval of the same by the court clerk of Dewey county, said petitioners to be enlarged.
