The opinion
BELCHER, Judge
(concurring).
I adhere to the holding that the refusal of the trial court to excise the hearsay statements in the principals’ confessions implicating the appellant was reversible error on the ground that the limiting charge could not possibly remove the injury and damage caused by such incriminating- statements and therefore deprived the appellant of a fair and impartial trial.
