1Opinion of the Court
Willie, Chief Justice.
It appears from the transcript in this cause that the term of the court at which it was determined ended on the 11th of June, 1881, and that the statement of facts found in the record was approved and filed on the 20th of that month. We find no order in the transcript permitting the statement to be made-up and filed after the adjournment of court for the term, and hence-this statement is improperly in the record and must be disregarded. Ross v. McGowen, 58 Tex., 603; McGuire v. Newbill, id., 314; Texas & Pacific R. R. Co. v. McAllister, 59 Tex., 349.
