On October 11, 1912, the plaintiffs in error filed their petition in error with case-made attached with the clerk of this court. According to the records of the clerk’s office, plaintiffs in error have not filed any praecipe for the issuance of summons in error, neither has any waiver of the issuance of such summons nor any appearance in any way been made. The motion for a new trial was overruled on April 27, 1912. This proceeding in error should have been commenced within six months ' from that date. Holcombe v. Lawyers’ Co-Op. Pub.
