The opinion

On Rehearing.

PER CURIAM.

Opinion was heretofore filed in this case on the 15th day of November, 1935, thereafter petition for rehearing was filed by the plaintiff in error and was granted.

Pending the rehearing, we are officially advised that the Governor of this state, under his constitutional authority, has extended clemency to plaintiff in error by

commuting the sentence from death to life imprisonment and that such clemency has been accepted.

Upon a further consideration, the original opinion is adhered to, but on account of the grant of clemency tha,t part of the opinion ordering a sanity hearing is abated.
