   THE COURT.

These eases, one and all,, present the same proposition decided in Dahler v. All Persons (S. F. No. 5622), ante, p. 160, [124 Pac. 995].

The so-called abstract of title and certificate thereto of date February 24, 1908, were improperly admitted for the reasons given in the Dahler case. Wherefore, in each of the above entitled cases the judgment and order refusing a new trial are reversed and the cause remanded.

Rehearing denied.
