On Motion for Rehearing.
 It being conceded that appellee wholly defaulted in his obligation to procure fire and tornado insurance policies against the destruction of the security for his debt to appellant, that by express provisions of the contract between the parties such default gave appellant the option to mature all of appellee’s obligation, and that appellant elected to and did exercise this option, it follows as a matter of law that appellant was entitled to judgment for the amount of the debt, with foreclosure of his lien upon the property. In this situation it was the duty of the trial court to render such judgment, and that duty passes to this court.
Accordingly, appellant’s motion for rehearing will be granted, the order remanding the cause will be set aside, and judgment is here rendered that appellant recover of appellee Henry Bennett the amount of the debt sued upon, including principal, interest, and attorney’s fees, and against both appellees for *574foreclosure of Ms lien upon the property in controversy. It is further ordered that the temporary injunction issued 'by the trial court against appellees be perpetuated in form and substance as originally issued below; that appellees recover nothing by reason of their cross-action against appellant, and pay all costs of the litigation.
