The opinion

Mr. Justice Slatton,

dissenting.

My views concerning the proper disposition of this case are contained in the majority opinion of the Galveston Court of Civil Appeals, which was edited by Chief Justice Montieth. 191 S. W. (2d) 118 . I therefore enter my dissent to the opinion of this Court.
