*588On Separate Motions of Appellant and Ap-pellee for Rehearing.
We wish it distinctly understood that we have not attempted to prejudge this case in any way on its merits as to the facts, hut only so far as to pass upon the action of the court in sustaining the plea in abatement and dismissing the case. That was and is the only issue before this court.
We would not undertake here and now to discuss the character of claims held by the parties, whether they should present them as such to the executor for repayment, or undertake by suit or otherwise to obtain specific performance of the alleged contract or damages. None of these are questions now before us. The sole question is whether the cause was properly dismissed.
The case was not tried on its merits, as it should have been, and the facts are not sufficiently developed that a judgment may be here rendered on the facts of the case consistent with the views we may entertain with reference to its ultimate disposition.
Both motions for rehearing are overruled.
