1DissentWhiting, J.

(dissenting.) The record herein does not, to my mind, present a case of “newly discovered evidence” relating to what took place at the time of the making of the alleged contract, but a case where a known witness was not present at the trial and no motion for continuance was presented. This fact brings this case directly under the rulings of this court in State v. Barnes, 26 S. D. 622, 129 N. W. 116, and State v Gregory, 31 S. D. 425, 141 N. W. 365.
