Mates, C. J.,
delivered tbe opinion of tbe court.
It fully appears in tbis case that appellants notified in writing, within thirty days after tbe adjournment of court, Thrapp, one of tbe stenographers taking testimony in tbe above styled oause, that a copy of tbe notes was desired for purposes of appeal. But counsel making tbe motion contend that Thrapp was not tbe “official stenographer,” and even though it appears that Thrapp was notified, still tbe statute was not complied with and tbe notes- should be stricken out. Tbis motion is accompanied by no showing that tbe “notes are incorrect in some material particular,” as is required by section of
the Laws of 1910, p. 93. It clearly appears that Thrapp was tbe stenographer who took most of tbe testimony, though two stenographers were present and acted as official stenographer at different times during the trial of the case. The whole record seems to be before this court, and there is no complaint that all the testimony taken is not present. In view of the fact that no damage is occasioned appellee, so- far as is shown by this motion, either of these stenographers was “the official stenographer” pro hac vice and this motion should be overruled. Bor all purposes of the law written notice was served ■on the official stenographer “within thirty days from adjournment of court,” and when this is done “no transcript shall be ■stricken from the record by the supreme court, for any reasons, unless it be shown that such notes are incorrect in some material particular,” and no such showing is here made. {
See Laws 1910, p. 93, § ItQla; Evans v. Ham, ante, p. 342, this term. Motion overruled.
