On Motion for Rehearing.
Appellee Keener has called our attention’ to an inaccurate statement in our opinion on original hearing, wherein it was stated, in substance, that prior to the occasion when Cleveland introduced Broyles to Smoot in Rising Star and the terms of the trade were agreed to, Keener had attempted to sell to Smoot some capital stock in the American Profit Sharing Company, but that he did not have in contemplation the sale of the lease in controversy. That statement was inaccurate in this. Prior to that meeting Smoot had listed the lease with Keener, and Keener had suggested to Smoot that Broyles might be induced to purchase the lease, and he and Smoot had gone to Rising Star and had spent two days there in an effort to find Broyles, but had .failed to find him. Smoot and Broyles were never brought together until Cleveland introduced them to each other in Rising Star on the occasion when the terms of the trade were agreed to.
Accordingly the original opinion is cor-, rected in the respect noted. However, we fail to perceive how the fact so stated in the correction noted could have any material bearing upon the conclusion we have reached already; and, after a careful consideration of appellee Keener’s motion for rehearing, the same is overruled.
