By amendment the action was made to proceed in the name of W. K. Young for the use of Delia S. Young and Mrs. Delia S. Young against A. C. Freeman. A verdict was rendered in favor of the ‘plaintiff’ for a designated sum, and a judgment was thereupon entered in favor of Mrs. Delia S. Young against A. C. Freeman. No judgment was entered in favor of W. K. Young. The bill of exceptions designates the ease as that of ‘W. K. Young et al. r. A. C. Freeman.’ The acknowledgment of service was signed by counsel as ‘Attorneys for W. K. Young et al., Defendant in Error.’ Under repeated rulings of this court, this did not make Mrs. Delia S. Young a party defendant in error, or operate as an acknowledgment of service on her behalf, if she should be made a party defendant in error by amendment from the record. It appearing in the investigation of the case that the sole person in whose favor a judgment was rendered has not been made a party defendant in error or served with the bill of exceptions, but no motion having been made to
