1Opinion of the CourtLeddy, J.
In this case the Honorable Court of Civil Appeals sustained the action of the trial court in adding interest at the legal rate to the amount found by the jury as damages sustained by defendant in error. 34 S.W.(2d) 381, 382.
The basis for this ruling is shown in the following statement from the opinion of that court: “The pleadings did not ask specifically for interest on the damages claimed, but the amount in which each item was laid was sufficient to cover the interest awarded by the court, and there was a prayer for general relief.”
