On Petition for Rehearing.
MAJOR, Circuit Judge.
In connection with the petition for rehearing, plaintiff has sought and obtained leave to file a transcript of the testimony of the witness Clifford. This was desired because of statements made in the majority opinion that the witness volunteered certain testimony, that he testified in certain instances without a question, and perhaps other statements of similar purport. An examination of the transcript of the testimony of this witness discloses that such statements in the majority opinion were erroneously made and that all the testimony given by him was in response to questions.
The majority opinion is therefore modified in this respect so as to reflect the true situation. Such modification, however, does not affect the holding of the majority relative to the erroneous nature of his testimony. After a study of the petition for rehearing, the court is satisfied that there is nothing presented which requires further consideration. Judge EVANS adheres to the views expressed in his dissenting opinion. The petition for rehearing is therefore denied.
