PartiesATCHISON v. CHICAGO & A. RY. CO.

Appeal from circuit court, Audrain county; Elliott M. Hughes, Judge.

Action by Harry Atchison against the Chicago & Alton Railway Company. Affirmed.

F. Houston, for appellant. P. H. Cullen, R. D. Rodgers, and E. S. Gantt, for respondent.

BLAND, P. J.

A rehearing was granted in this cause, with leave to appellant to file amended abstracts of record. This has been done, showing that the motion for new trial was filed in proper time, the date of the filing of the petition and the answer, and that certain extensions of time to file bill of exceptions were granted by the court.

The court ordered said bill to be filed and made a part of the record in the case, and thereupon granted defendant 10 days to file the remainder of its bill of exceptions. Afterwards, to wit, on the 29th day of April, 1901, defendant filed the remainder of its bill of exceptions. Plaintiff in his additional abstracts denies that there is any record entry showing that the remainder of the bill of exceptions was filed in the cause on the 29th day of April or on any other day.

Supposing defendant's abstracts to be correct, then we have this state of facts in respect to the bill of exceptions, to wit: On April 23d an incomplete bill of exceptions was, in open court, examined, approved, and signed by the judge, and ordered to be made a part of the record (what...
