The opinion

HAWTHORNE, Justice

(dissenting in part).

I cannot agree with the majority’s conclusion in regard to Bill of Exception No. 9. For the reasons stated in my opinion on original hearing I think this bill shows that reversible error was committed and the accused is entitled to a new trial.
