1Opinion of the Court
WILLIAMS, Associate Justice.
This action was brought by plaintiffs in error to recover of defendants in error a sum of money, and in the District Court exceptions of defendants, including one that the cause of action appeared from the petition to be barred by the statutes of two and five years limitation, were sustained, and, upon plantiffs declining to amend, the suit was dismissed. This judgment was affirmed by the Court of Civil Appeals upon the ground that the action was barred by two years limitation, and from the judgment of affirmance, this writ of error is prosecuted.
