Syllabus

<p>1. Teanscbipt of eecobd on appeal or error—what questions to he considered on second appeal—remedy as to rulings of this court. If the decision of this court in a particular case is not satisfactory to the parties, the only remedy is to make application for a rehearing. Any supposed errors which may have intervened in a cause prior to an appeal or writ of error, will not be considered upon any subsequent appeal or writ of error.
