On Motion for Rehearing
Appellants and appellees have filed a joint motion for rehearing herein in which they call attention to a stipulation in the trial court between appellants and ap-pellees to the effect that E. J. Moran and L. A. Grelling did not own any interest in the property at the time of the trial. The record does not reflect that either of the attorneys represented Moran and Grelling and we doubt if the stipulation would have any effect upon the situation. Some original letters were attached to the motion showing that neither Moran nor Grelling claims any interest in the property. This court cannot consider original evidence in a case.
Assuming that neither Moran nor Grell-ing claims any interest in the property, Dove and Charlie McDonald, the beneficiaries under the trust are necessary and indispensable parties to this suit and we cannot proceed further until they are made parties.
We suggest that if the leases to Moran and Grelling are going to be offered in evidence for any purpose upon another trial of this case, a release of such leases be secured and offered, or get them to file disclaimers in the case.
The motion is overruled.
