Opinion of the Court

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

Per Curiam.

In this case no exception was taken to any ruling of the Court. The record presents nothing for our consideration in such a case, as we have repeatedly decided (1) . The affirmance is no indication, therefore, of any opinion on the questions ruled below; for we have not looked into them.

The judgment is affirmed, with 5 per cent, damages and costs.

See Jolly v. The Terre Haute Drawbridge Co., 9 Ind. R. 417, 421.
