1. ““The court erred in admitting the testimony of Dr. Eush; it was a privileged communication of the patient under his charge, which could not be disclosed, except at the instance of the patient. Section 3695, Code of 1906 (section 6380, Hemingway’s Code); Yazoo & M. V. R. Co. v. Messina, 109 Miss. 143 , 67 So. 963 ; and McCaw v.
