1Opinion of the CourtHightower, C. J.

This is an appeal from a judgment of the district court of San Augustine county by A. Murphy, who was one of the defendants cast in the judgment of the trial court, and who alone has appealed. The statement of the nature and result of this suit, as made by appellant in his brief and acquiesced in by appellee's, is very lengthy and covers some 15 pages of appellant’s brief, but we think that it is entirely unnecessary or profitable to any one tó incumber this opinion with a statement of such length, and we have therefore decided to state the case more briefly.
