Compiled Laws, sec. 2899.\nTbe action of tbe court deprived tbe defendant of a substantial right wbicb was of great importance to him. Where two counsel appear it is quite usual to divide tbe work of addressing tbe jury, one counsel devoting himself to one part of tbe case and tbe other to tbe remainder. Doubtless tbis statute was not called to tbe attention of tbe trial court. We feel compelled, however, to bold that tbe action of tbe trial court was prejudicial to tbe rights of tbe defendant, and that tbis canse must be reversed for tbis reason, and it is\u2019 SO' ordered.\nMills, C.
