Opinion of the Court
Per Curiam:
The assignment of errors include the-overruling of the motion for a new trial, rendering judgment for the defendant in error, giving-erroneous instructions, excluding legal, competent,, material, and relevant testimony, and admitting illegal, incompetent, and immaterial evidence. A discussion of these assignments of error would require an examination of the evidence, but there is no case-made brought here in such a form as to show .that it contains all the evidence-which was heard upon the trial. The statement connected with the evidence simply shows that, “ Case-Closed.” The statement of the stenographer is that “the- *701 above and foregoing is a true and correct transcript of my shorthand notes taken during the course of the trial.” The certificate of the trial judge states that the case-made •contains all the evidence, but such a statement is insufficient. The statement should be inserted in the case itself, and not in the certificate of the judge who settles the case.

We have examined the instructions of the court which have been objected to, and find no ruling which could have been'prejudicial to the rights of the plaintiffs in •error. The judgment of the court below-is affirmed.
