On Motion for Rehearing.
Our attention has been called by motion to an error made in the findings of fact in the original opinion in this case. It was stated in this opinion that the money paid in to the treasurer of the corporation by its promoter’s was untouched on May first, when the corporation, Popular Amusement Company, took possession of the leased building. It appears that checks amounting to $7,500 were paid by the corporation to appellee Rude on the Sth of April as advance payments on the rent, for the first thre’e months under the lease contract of the building. It also appears that a thousand dollars was paid to appellant before May first as the advance payment on the organ in controversy which was ordered by the corporation for use in this building. Each of these payments not only amounted to a recognition of the existence of the lease contract, but was a clear Ratification of same, and the error pointed out in the findings of fact in nowise affects the judgment rendered.
The motions for rehearing and for additional findings of fact are overruled.
