On Rehearing
Application for rehearing overruled.
All of the Justices concurring except GOODWYN, J., who dissents.
LAWSON, Justice.
If this were a matter of first impression, I would agree with the view expressed by Justice GOODWYN on rehearing. But I do not think we should recede in this case from the view expressed in Fidelity-Phenix Fire Ins. Co. of New York v. Murphy, 231 Ala. 680, 166 So. 604, or say that the holding in that case is not dispositive of the question at hand. I can see no factual distinction which would justify a different holding.
I agree, therefore, that the application for rehearing be overruled.
