CONNER, -C. J.
This case was submitted to the trial court upon an agreed statement of facts under our statutes. We quote such parts of the agreed statement as we think necessary to an understanding of our conclusion. It was agreed that Mrs. F. O. Clark owned “in her own right” two surveys of land situated in Parker county, Tex., aggregating 189 acres, that Mrs. F. C. Clark and her husband, J. M. Clark, owned as community property another survey of ICO acres in Parker county, and that “good title thereto is shown by the records in the parties above named at the time they acquired the sa«ie.” 1 .
