1Opinion of the Court
The plaintiff, Early-Foster Company, a private corporation, brought this suit against the defendant, Cowdin Grocery Company, another private corporation, and this appeal is prosecuted from an order of the trial court overruling a plea of privilege urged by the defendant, and the correctness of that ruling is the only question to be decided by this court.
No objection is made to the form of the plea of privilege, which, in substance, was based upon the fact that the defendant has its domicile and only place of business in Fayette county, Tex., and that the suit was brought in McLennan county.…
