On Motion for Rehearing.
We have concluded upon rehearing that the record is such as to require this court to render such judgment as the trial court should have rendered, in consonance with the holdings in the original opinion herein, to which we adhere. Accordingly, the former judgment of this court reversing the judgment of the trial court and remanding the cause is hereby set aside, and it is now ordered, first, that the judgment of the trial court be affirmed in so far as the same decrees the cancellation of the affidavit executed by appellant for the purpose of fixing a lien upon appellees’ leasehold estate, and removing cloud cast upon appellees’ title by the registration thereof; second, that the judgment denying to appellant specific performance of the contract alleged by him be reversed; third, that judgment be here rendered that appellant recover of appellees for specific performance of his contract, and that he do have and recover of appellees an undivided interest of 500 acres in 6,438.24 acres of ap-pellee, J. E. Walsh’s lease upon the Wade ranch as described in the pleadings and judgment below, the same being all of said lease except that portion thereof heretofore as*949signed by said Walsb to appellee Wade and Ehlers; fourth, that, except as hereinabove ordered affirmed, the cause be remanded with instructions to the court below to make an equitable partition of said leasehold, so as to segregate and award to appellant the acreage herein decreed to him; fifth, that appel-lees pay all costs of this appeal.
Affirmed in part; in part reversed and rendered, with instructions.
