1. “The law in Texas is to the effect that where separate and community property are so intermixed that the separate property loses its identity and cannot accurately be traced, the comingled fund, and property acquired therewith, becomes community property. Stated in another way, where a husband or wife permits his or her separate property to become so co-mingled with community property that it cannot be identified, the separate property co-mingled becomes community property. See Tex.Jur., 10 Yr.Supp. Vol. 5, Sec. 67a, p. 595; Hudspeth v. Hudspeth, Tex.Civ.App., 198 S.W.2d 768 ; Coggin v. Coggin, Tex.Civ.App., 204 S.W.2d 47 ; Gorman v.
