MOTION FOR REHEARING.
Decided December 14, 1946.
OPINION
By THE COURT:
Submitted on motion for rehearing. The Appellant claims the Court failed to state one important factual situation. The widow was a party to the case, and at the time the trial court rendered judgment the widow was still living, otherwise the question involved would have become moot. Before the matter reached this Court the widow died and her administrator was made a party to the suit.
Without granting a rehearing the Court may well clarify this matter by stating that the decision of this Court was rendered in light of the factual situation which prevailed in the trial court — during the life of the widow. Since this is an appeal on law, the Court could not do otherwise.
All other matters raised on the application were fully considered by the Court at the time the opinion was rendered.
Application will be denied.
HORNBECK, PJ, and WISEMAN, J, concur, (MILLER, J, not participating).
