Lister being a remote vendor in appellant's chain of title to the Merchant, and being the owner of the land at the time of such statements against his Interests, and being in possession, the evidence was admissible upon the issue here in dispute, and the court did not err, as contended under this assignment. Snow v. Starr, 75 Tex. 411, 12 S.W. 673; Rose v. Hays Inv. Co., 205 S.W. 140. The assignment is overruled. Appellant's third, fourth, and fifth assignments of error are grouped, though we seriously doubt that they were properly so, under the rules.
