On Motion for Rehearing.
We have endeavored to give appellee’s motion for rehearing as careful consideration as *385we Faye been able to give it, but retain the views and final conclusion expressed in our opinion herein filed on January 24, 1931.
The following is said in concluding the motion, to wit:
“We respectfully suggest that if this court adheres to its former ruling on this question that- it render judgment in this court rather than remanding it for a new trial. We say this because we do not know of any further testimony that could be adduced in another trial, and it would be useless expenditure of time and expense for both the attorneys and the parties to try the case again in the trial court.
“Wherefore, appellee respectfully prays that the former judgment heretofore entered by this court be set aside, and that judgment be entered affirming that of the trial court, and that in the alternative, the judgment of the trial court be rendered rather than remanded for a new trial.”
Appellant, in a motion therefor, also prays that the judgment be here rendered for appellant. It is accordingly ordered that the judgment heretofore rendered in this cause remanding the case to the trial court be set aside and judgment be now and here rendered setting aside the money judgment of $950 in appellant’s favor under his alternative pleading, but vesting in him affirmatively full title and right of possession in and to the tract of land described in the pleadings of the parties, together with all costs of suit in the court below, as well as on appeal, for all of which appropriate process may issue.
