Opinion of the Court

Text extracted by OCR from a scanned original; check the original for exact wording.

PER CURIAM.

On this appeal, appellant objects to the trial court’s charge to the jury, but the so-called bill of exceptions does not indicate that he did so at the trial. The objection comes too late. Martin v. Washington Times Co., 67 App.D.C. 11 , 89 F.2d 230 . It is a salutary rule that errors which the trial court is given no opportunity to correct will not, in general, be considered on appeal.

Affirmed.

GRONER, C. J., took no part in the consideration and decision of this case.
