APPEAL FROM NICHOLAS CIRCUIT COURT.
September 22, 1874.
Thomas F. Hargis, for appellants.
E. C. Phister, for appellee.

Opinion:
Opinion by
Judge Cofer:
A part of one of appellee's depositions is missing from the record, and the clerk certifies that it is missing from his office; and as the decision of the case depends wholly upon questions of fact, we are bound by a well-established rule, often recognized by this court, to presume, in the absence of a part of the evidence heard by the court of original jurisdiction, that the judgment is right.
Wherefore the judgment is affirmed.
