Memorandum.—Assumpsit. Appeal from the Superior Court of Cook County; the Hon. Jonas Hutchinson, Judge, presiding. Heard in this court at the October term, 1893, and affirmed.

1Opinion of the CourtJustice Shepard

This was a suit upon a promissory note. The only plea was the general issue. By agreement of parties a jury was waived and the cause submitted to the court for trial. The court heard the evidence, found the issues for the plaintiff, and rendered judgment in his favor and against the defendant.

There was no objection to the evidence offered, and no exception was taken to the finding or any other ruling of the court; there was no motion for a new trial, and no preservation by bill of exceptions, of the evidence on which the court based its finding and judgment, or of any ruling by the court.
