The first assignment of error complains of the action of the court in denying an extension of time for filing statement of facts and bills of exception. The statute empowers the district judge to extend the time "upon good cause shown," thereby placing the discretion with him to extend or not, as the facts may justify. We must presume that he acted within his sound discretion in denying the application for extension of time. The application for extension was made more than two months after the adjournment of the court. We cannot review the action of the court in refusing to attempt to prepare a statement of facts when the record indicates laches in preparing the statement of facts and in attempting to obtain an agreement with opposing counsel. It will be presumed that the lower court was not convinced that proper efforts had been made to obtain an agreement to the statement of facts. The very fact that a prayer for an extension of time and a request to the judge to prepare a statement of facts were contained in the same application indicates that appellants had not exercised proper diligence. It is not stated in the application that appellees had refused to agree to a statement of facts, but "that the defendants and the plaintiffs have not agreed upon and filed a statement of facts and bills of exceptions."
There is no merit in the contention that a railroad company cannot obtain title by limitations. The statute of limitations does not make any exception as to corporations. It was held by this court in the case of Board of School Trustees v. Railway (Civ.App.) 67 S.W. 147, that a railway company could acquire title to land by 10 years limitation. The same right is indirectly recognized in the case of Railway v. Wilson,
The assignments of error are all overruled, and the judgment affirmed.
