On Rehearing.
In the original opinion we held as an independent reason why the judgment could not be sustained that the Railroad Company was a necessary party, and, although it had been made a party, “it was dismissed from the suit and therefore not bound by the judgment.” In appellee’s motion for rehearing it is insisted we misinterpreted the record in this respect and that said party was not dismissed. It must be admitted that the judgment is at least ambiguous, and since that point was not urged what we said upon that question is withdrawn. We will interpret the judgment, as insisted by the appellee, as merely providing that the judgment for costs should not be applicable as against the Railroad Company. Otherwise, the motion for rehearing is overruled.
