The facts are recited with sufficient fullness in the opinion rendered on the former appeal, 139 Iowa, 383, and though witnesses who had not testified on the first trial were called, the additional evidence was not such as to exact any change from the conclusions therein announced. . Hpon remand, defendants filed an amendment to the answer pleading that the action was barred by the statute of limitations in that more than ten years had elapsed since it might have been maintained.
