SAN LORENZO TITLE & IMPROVEMENT COMPANY, Plaintiff in Error, v. Allie D. CLARDY et al., Defendants in Error.
    No. 6264.
    Supreme Court of Texas.
    June 30, 1934.
    McKenzie, Walthall & Gamble, J. U. Sweeney, J. E. Quaid, F. C. Knollenborg, E. E. Cameron, and Sydney Smith, all of El Paso, for plaintiff in error.
    Turney, Burges, Culwell & Pollard, Richard H. Burges, and Walter S. Howe, all of El Paso, for defendants in error.
   PIERSON, Justice.

This is a companion case to San Lorenzo Title & Improvement Company v. City Mortgage Company (Tex. Sup.) 73 S.W.(2d) 513, opinion delivered today.

In this ease plaintiff in error sued defendants in error for certain lots and parcels of land in El Paso county, said land being situated on San Lorenzo Banco No. 302. Plaintiff in error’s right to recover in this suit depends upon its title to the San Lorenzo Banco No. 302, and its petition in the district court in this suit was identical in all essential respects to its petition in its ease against City Mortgage Company, and the issues are the same as in that case.

The district court sustained a general demurrer to plaintiff in error’s petition in this case, as it did in the City Mortgage Company Case. This judgment was affirmed by the Court of Civil Appeals for the Eighth District. 48 S.W.(2d) 315.

Upon the authority of the case of San Lorenzo Title & Improvement Company v. City Mortgage Company, supra, the judgments of the district court and of the Court of Civil Appeals are accordingly affirmed.
