1Opinion of the CourtEothrock, J.
i. bill of ex- ■ £kíetonSsufflcient. — I. Counsel for appellee make a question as to the sufficiency of the bill of exceptions, which embodies the evidence taken upon the trial. We deem it sufficient to say that this objection is not well taken. The bill of exceptions when signed by the judge was a skeleton in form, but it unmistakably referred to the short-hand reporter’s notes of the evidence, and directed the evidence thus taken to be inserted. There was no uncertainty as to the source from which the clerk should make up the record.
