¶1 (concurring) : I am constrained to concur in this opinion by the holdings of the Court heretofore made in relation to this subject. The hands of the Court are tied by the doctrine of stare decisis. But I have never been in sympathy with the rule established by the decisions of this Court which relates to the question of waiver of jurisdiction. It is to be hoped that some member of the bar who is a member of the General Assembly will induce legislative action to change this condition.
