The opinion

Opinion on Petitions to Rehear

MR. Justice CresoN.

Petitions to rehear have been filed. In essence, they complain that certain points made have been overlooked. The multiple briefs, oral arguments and opinions of this Court simply emasculate the suggestion that anything has been overlooked in this cause. All of the points made and authorities cited have been considered thoughtfully, and at length.

The petitions to rehear are denied.

BurNETt, Chief Justice, and Dyer and ChattiN, Justices, concur.

Humphreys, Justice, dissenting.
