Opinion of the Court
This action is consolidated with another action brought by said Hall to estabRsh his mechanic’s Ren. In that action Smith & Son moved for a trial upon written evidence. In this action Hall moved for atrial upon written evidence. The court denied the motion in each case, and neither party excepted. It is now objected by the appeUees that the case cannot be tried de novo. To this the appeRant repRes that all the evidence upon the trial was taken down in writing and is contained in the bill of exceptions, properly signed by the judge. But it was not ordered to be taken down, and we have held that such order is necessary to make the case triable de novo in this court.
The appeRees further object that there is no assignment of errora and that
Affirmed.
