*610On Rehearing.
Upon reconsideration we are of the opinion that the tidal court was in error in giving at the request of appellee written charge which we have numbered A, and the giving of which is the basis of appellant’s assignment of error No. 1. Smith v Davenport, 12 Ala. App. 456, 68 So. 545. The charge assumes that the Johnson mortgage was a valid one, and we cannot find in the record any evidence that the mortgagor, Speegle, at the time of the execution of it, had a present interest in the lands upon which the crops, the subject of the mortgage, were to be grown. But, even if there were such evidence, it would seem that the charge would be invasive of the province of the jury.
Eor the error in giving this charge, the application for rehearing is granted, the order of affirmance set aside, the judgment reversed, and the cause remanded.
Application for rehearing granted.
Reversed and remanded.
