*271On Motion for Rehearing.
[2] We rule against appellee on the main point involved in the motion for rehearing, but have concluded that this court fell into error when it went to the extent of rendering judgment for appellant. We agree with the contention of appellee’s counsel that if, prior to and at the time the disinfectants involved in this case were ordered by the sheriff, the county already had in the courthouse and accessible for the use of the jail an adequate supply of disinfectants, then the sheriff had no authority to bind the county to pay the claim here involved.
Upon that issue the ease may not have been fully developed, and therefore we remand it for another trial upon that issue.
