GILDER v. HASTY, PROBATE JUDGE.
    (Decided December 16, 1915,)

    Heard before Hon. R. I. Jones, Special Judge.
    McDaniel & Whitfield, and N. D. Denson & Sons, for appellant. No counsel marked for appellee.

This case is ruled by the decision in Smith v. Stiles, infra, 70 South. 905, in which it was held that Marengo constituted a separate circuit. On the authority of that case judgment must be reversed and judgment rendered granting prayer of petitioner requiring the probate judge to place his name upon the ballot as a candidate for judge of that circuit.

Sayre, J., dissents.
