On Motion for Rehearing.
In his motion for rehearing appellant vigorously complains of the statement in the original opinion that appellant acquiesced in the “form” in which the one special issue was submitted to the jury, “and did not request additional instructions or issues, wherefore he is bound by that submission.” That statement, however, was literally true, and fully warranted by the record. Appellant did not object to the form in which the case, or the one special issue, was submitted, or make any request for other issues or instructions. Appellant did object to the submission of that special issue, but only upon the ground that “there is no evidence in the case to warrant” its submission, whereas, the appeal and the motion for rehearing do not rely upon that ground, but upon others, for reversal.
We adhere to the original opinion and overrule appellant’s motion for rehearing.
MURRAY, J., not sitting.
