The opinion

On Petition to Rehear.

Prewitt, Justice.

A petition to rehear has been filed herein which has been given our careful attention. This petition points to no part of the record that we overlooked, and we are content to rest our decision on City of Memphis v. McCrady, 174 Tenn. 162 , 124 S. W. (2d) 248 .

It results that we have considered the petition to rehear and find it without merit, and it is denied.
