Head Matter:
James Gallagher et al. v. David R. Brandt et al.
1. Bill op exceptions—its requisites. Where the error assigned is, that the verdict is against tjie evidence, but the bill of exceptions in the case does not purport to embody all the evidence,'this court will not regard such assignment of error as properly before it.
Appeal to the Circuit Court of Cook county; the Hon. Erastus S. Williams, Judge, presiding.
The opinion states the case.
Mr. H. M. Chase, for the appellants.
Mr. G. W. Brandt, for the appellees.

Opinion:
Mr. Justice Lawrence
delivered the opinion of the Court:
This was an action of trespass, in which the plaintiff recovered a verdict and judgment for one hundred dollars, and the defendants appealed. It is urged by appellees' counsel that the verdict is not sustained by the evidence. That question, however, is not before us, for the bill of exceptions does not purport to embody all the evidence. Eo objection is urged by counsel to the ruling of the court upon the instructions, and we discover no error in regard to them.
Judgment affirmed.
