OPINION OF THE COURT BY
R. D. SILLIMAN, ESQ.Tbis is an application for reargument of tbe decision reported on page 682, Vol. 11 Haw. R.
Tbe grounds of tbe motion are that tbe decision embraces points that were not argmed by counsel, determines a matter not in issue between tbe parties and not before tbe circuit court below nor before tbis court on appeal.
There were two appeals of Douglas K. Brown before tbis court at tbe time of tbe bearing of October lltb, 1898, one entitled as tbe first above, being an appeal from a pro forma decree, dismissing tbe bill of tbe plaintiffs, tbe other entitled as tbe second above, being an appeal from a decision and decree of tbe first judge of the circuit court, striking certain matter from tbe answer of said Douglas K. Brown to plaintiff’s amended bill of revivor and ordering that tbe original suit, commenced on November 10th, 1891, by Mary C. Aldrich, Helen B. King, Harriet N. Brown, Henry S. Swinton, Charles E. S. Swinton, Helen M. Seal, Douglas K. Brown and Norman Brown by William C. King, their next friend, v. James Smith be revived against Priscilla E. Hassinger, Henrietta E. Ross and Annie H. Turton as substituted defendants and do stand in tbe same plight and condition as at tbe time of the death of said W. James Smith.
*10The second appeal only was argued and submitted at the hearing of October 17th and the matters decided were raised only by that appeal. There is therefore an error in the title to the decision reported on page 682 of Vol. 11 Haw. R. The title of that decision should be as the second title above.
At the time the original suit was commenced Douglas X. Brown, then a minor, was made a party plaintiff by William O. Xing, his next friend. On May 15th, 1897, a bill of revivor was filed setting forth that the defendant in the original suit, W. James Smith, died in Honolulu, March 22, 1896, that Priscilla E. Hassinger, Henrietta E. Boss and Annie IT. Turton were the heirs at law of said W. James Smith, and asking that the original suit be revived against them. This bill of revivor was signed by William O. Xing alone and no decree was made reviving the suit but the suit was proceeded with on the merits as though properly revived, and a decree on the merits was made and entered in favor of the plaintiffs. Erom this decree the defendants appealed to this court.
Douglas X. Brown, who had been made a party plaintiff by next friend, filed a motion stating that he was no longer a minor and asking leave to enter his appearance in his own behalf and at the same time filed a plea asking that his name be stricken from the record as plaintiff. An answer to this plea was filed setting up laches of said Brown and other matters. After argument it was decided that Douglas X. Brown’s name should be stricken from the record as a party plaintiff that the decree appealed from should be vacated, and the bill remanded to a judge of the circuit court for such amendments as plaintiffs might be advised to make and such further proceedings as might be necessary. Thereupon the plaintiffs in the second above entitled cause filed an amended bill of revivor setting forth the same facts as the original bill of revivor and also in addition other facts immaterial, upon the inquiry as to who were the heirs at law of W. James Smith but showing changes in the status of several of the plaintiffs since the original bill was filed. Among other things it was alleged that Douglas X. Brown had *11become of age since tbe filing’ of tbe original bill and declined to join in said amended bill of revivor. The bill prayed that the suit be revived and for general relief. Douglas 3L Brown filed an answer to the amended bill of revivor admitting certain allegations thereof and setting forth facts that clearly showed his adverse interests to the other parties plaintiff to the original suit, and asking for relief adverse to the interests of such other plaintiffs and also adding a prayer for such general relief as the case might require.
Kinney, Ballou & McGlanahan for the motion. J. T. DeBolt, contra.We are of the opinion that it is apparent from the record before us that Douglas K. Brown was wrongly made a party plaintiff in the original suit as revived, that the conclusion arrived at on the former hearing it within the issues raised by the pleadings then before us, and as the only question argued upon the former hearing was whether said Douglas K. Brown was properly made such party .plaintiff, the motion for a reargument is denied.
