Fritz, C. J.
(on motion for rehearing). We observe nothing in plaintiff’s brief filed on his motion for rehearing which requires that we recede from our original holding. We consider, however, that counsel’s erroneous construction of certain statements included by the trial judge in his memorandum opinion and quoted in ours merits a further word. It was not intended by us nor do we believe that it was the trial judge’s purpose to suggest that there has been any misconduct or unethical practise on the part of plaintiff’s attorneys. What we said was intended to be applied to the plaintiff, and not to his attorneys for whom we have the highest respect. We are of the opinion, also, that the learned trial judge meant no more.
By the Court. — The motion for rehearing is denied, with $25 costs.
