Appellant brought suit in the ordinary form of trespass to try title, to recover of appellee 174% acres of the Jesse Williams survey. Appellee pleaded not •guilty, the statute of limitations, and im-pleaded bis warrantor, M. W. Rogers. There was a trial before a jury which resulted in *1159a verdict and judgment for the defendants.
[1] Appellee insists that the judgment herein should be affirmed without reference to the assignments of error filed by appellant, for the reason that appellant showed no title to the land in controversy. In this we concur. Appellant being plaintiff, it was incumbent upon him to show title from the sovereignty of the soil. He showed no title of any character escept a deed from parties who are not shown to have any title.
[2] There is in the record what purports to be a copy of an agreement, in words and figures as follows: “No. 2,060. District Court of Hays County, Texas. H. G. Williams v. W. M. Kuykendall. We the undersigned parties to the above entitled and numbered cause hereby agree: That the title to the Jesse Williams survey in 1-Iays county is in the plaintiff, and it will not be necessary in the trial of said cause for him to deraign title thereto. It is, however, expressly agreed that said title is in plaintiff, unless the defendants have acquired title thereto by reason of the statute of limitations as against said plaintiff. [Signed] C. Price Rogers, Atty. for Deft. M. W. Rogers. O. T. Brown, Atty. for Deft. W. M. Kuykendall. Filed Sept. 25, 1908. J. S. Davis, D. C. H. Co., Texas.”
This suit was tried at the March term, 1910, of the district court of Hays county. The parties having failed to agree upon a statement of facts, the district judge made out and certified to a statement of facts as in such case provided by law. Neither the above agreement, nor any other agreement as to title, appears in said statement of facts. The alleged agreement should not have been copied in the record, and its being there does not authorize us, when objection is made, to consider the same. The statement of facts is the only thing that we can look to in determining what facts were proven or agreed to. Such agreement, having been filed with the papers in the cause, would not have aided appellant if he had not read the same on the trial of this cause. The agreement not appearing in the statement of facts is conclusive, so far as this court is concerned, of the fact that it was not read in evidence. There is no bill of exception showing that it was offered in evidence.
Por the reasons above set out, the motion ■of appellee to strike said alleged agreement from the record is sustained, and the judgment of the trial court is affirmed.
