ON MOTION FOR REHEARING.
Counsel for appellant calls our attention to the fact that there is a bill of exceptions in the record which contains a statement of all the facts proven on the trial affecting the issue of damages, which it is insisted should be treated as a statement of facts; but in thus seeking to have us pass upon the sufficiency of the evidence to sustain the judgment, the learned counsel must have overlooked the rule of practice long since established in this State by the decisions of our Supreme Court, that it is inadmissible to substitute a bill of exceptions for a statement of facts. Carolan v. Jefferson, 24 Texas, 230, and Roundtree v. City of Galveston, 42 Texas, 612.
We must therefore adhere to the conclusions already announced,' and overrule the motion.

Overruled.

Writ of error refused.
