ON MOTION FOR REHEARING
MORRISON, Presiding Judge.
In Ex parte Fernandez, supra, cited in our original opinion, the offense which formed the basis of the revocation occurred on March 1, 1951. The state filed a motion to revoke probation on March 8, 1951. This court held that, since the relator had been sentenced in the cause in which probation was granted on January 17, 1949, the sentence of two years had expired at the time of the commission of the offense which formed the basis of the prosecution and at the time of the filing of the motion for revocation.
A search of the records of this court reveals that in Ex parte Davis, 158 Texas Cr. R. 50, 253 S.W. 2d 664, there apparently *290was no motion ever filed by the state to revoke the suspended sentence, but the court instructed the relator at the time of his subsequent conviction that his suspended sentence would have to be revoked. However, the court allowed the relator to finish his wheat crop and took no affirmative action in relation to the revocation until after the expiration of the period covered by the suspended sentence.
We think that our original opinion is consistent with these two former opinions.
Remaining convinced that we properly disposed of this cause originally, the motion for rehearing is overruled.
