The opinion

I concur in the result of this opinion, but not for the reasons stated therein. I fully recall the Steele Case, but it is not authority here. In that case the two statements were made at the same trial, and that was the matter discussed by Judge FARIS. It was a much discussed opinion at the time, and certainly goes as far as we should go. It suffices to say that it does not go far enough to be effective in any case where the two statements occur at different trials.
