Vineyard v. Matney

PartiesVINEYARD et al., Appellants, v. MATNEY.
CourtMissouri Supreme Court

Appeal from Buchanan Circuit Court.--HON. JOS. P. GRUBB, Judge.

Vories, Loan and Vineyard for appellants.

Bennett Pike for respondent.

SHERWOOD, C. J.

Action based on written contract. The case hinges upon the propriety of the admission of parol evidence in reference to that contract. Although exception was taken to the admission of such evidence, yet, as the attention of the court was not called to the alleged error in the motion for new trial, and opportunity thus afforded for correction of the supposed error, we cannot notice the point here. Brady v. Connelly, 52 Mo. 19; Saxion v. Allen, 49 Mo. 417; and the case stands here precisely as if the evidence had been admitted without objection. Margrave v. Ausmuss, 51 Mo. 561. Judgment affirmed.

All concur.

AFFIRMED.
