On Petition for Rehearing
PER CURIAM.
We are asked to grant a rehearing on the ground that Fernandez received a ■“Fit-For-Duty” discharge from the United States Public Health Service Hospital September 23, 1960, after the record was lodged on appeal; that the discharge proves the findings of the district court were clearly erroneous. The discharge was not brought to the attention of the Court or mentioned during the argument, although more than four months elapsed between the date of the discharge and the date of the argument, February 7, 1961. This Court’s decision affirmed the findings of the district court that libellant’s “ills were unrelated to his employment by respondent” and “none of the disabling conditions manifested themselves while [he] was employed by respondent”. The discharge therefore does not affect these findings.
The petition for rehearing is Denied.
