Mr. Chief Justice Hilliard
dissenting on rehearing.
I am now persuaded, although originally I thought otherwise, that the opinion here affirms a judgment that works a definite injustice. In Moffat Tunnel Dist. v. Denver, 93 Colo. 317, 25 P. (2d) 735, we required the tunnel district to reimburse Denver for all costs and expenses incurred by it in connection with the collection of Moffat Tunnel assessments. It is admitted that in this instance such costs and expenses, including the costs of the certificates of sale and redemption presently involved, were paid. I cannot subscribe to the judicial requirement that those items be discharged a second time, which I think is the effect of our present pronouncement.
