On motion of the appellee the bill of exceptions setting forth the evidence in this case was stricken from the record.
The appellant now assigns as error several instructions granted and refused by the court below. The character of these instructions is such that we are unable to consider them in the absence of the evidence on which they were based.

Affirmed.
