Opinion:
SMITH, J.
The record is accompanied by no authenticated statement of facts. There is with the record a document bearing no in-dorsement on its cover, but denominated "statement of facts" on its initial page. It nowhere bears the approval or signature of counsel for either party to the suit, or of the trial judge. It bears the usual certificate of the court reporter, but is not otherwise in any manner authenticated or approved. Obviously, then, this document can serve no purpose in the appeal, and this court is without any authority to consider it for any purpose; nor does the transcript contain any findings of fact or conclusions of law by the trial judge.
The only Questions raised in the appeal are those purely of fact, determinable alone by the evidence upon the trial,' but, as there are no findings of fact or statement of facts, this court has no means of passing upon those questions, and must assume, as a matter of law, that every fact necessary to sustain the judgment was proven upon the trial.
The result is that the judgment must be affirmed.
