On rehearing of appeal from a judgment of the Superior Court of the County of Navajo. J. E. Crosby, Judge. Original opinion modified.
For former opinion, see ante, p. 124, 256 P. 362.
Mr Levi S. Udall, County Attorney, and Mr. Maurice Barth, and Mr. Isaac Barth, Special Counsel, for Appellant.
Messrs Sapp & McLaughlin, for Appellee.
Appellant in the above-entitled action has presented a petition for rehearing wherein he urges that the court erred in holding the registered warrants of the various school districts of Apache county were not an indebtedness of the county rather than the districts. He also requests that we make more definite and certain our holding in regard to the character of the moneys held by the county treasurer to the credit of the various school districts, claiming that the conclusion may be, and in one case has already been drawn from our opinion that they are not public moneys of Apache county.
On examining the question more carefully, we have come to the conclusion that we erred in holding that the registered warrants of the school districts of Apache county are not an indebtedness or obligation of the county. As was said in the case of National Surety Co. v. Richards, 111 Okl. 185, 239 P. 262, under statutes which are to a great extent like ours in their effect:
