— From a judgment in favor of the plaintiff and against the defendant Stephenville, Horth & South Texas Railway Company, the latter has appealed.

The case is presented in this court on two assignments of error. The first complains of the .refusal of a requested instruction directing the jury to return a verdict for the appellant; and the second assails the verdict of the jury as being unsupported by and contrary to the testimony. The record contains what purports to be the original statement of facts, which.is signed by the attorneys representing -the plaintiff and the defendant Stephenville, Horth & South Texas Railway Company. The Missouri, Kansas & Texas Railway Company -of Texas and the Texas Central Railway Company were also defendants, and judgment was rendered for them in the court below, but the statement of facts is not signed by or on behalf of either of those defendants. Furthermore, it is not signed or approved by the trial judge. The *263 statute requires that a statement of facts, although agreed to by the parties, must be approved by the trial judge; and it is settled by a long line of decisions that a statement of facts not so approved should not be considered by an appellate court. (Tardiff v. State, 23 Texas, 169; Witten v. Poindexter, 25 Texas Supp., 378; Bell v. State, 29 Texas, 492; Johnson v. Blount, 48 Texas, 38; Western Union Tel. Co. v. Walker, 26 S. W., 858; Gulf, C. & S. F. Ry. Co. v. Calvert, 31 S. W., 679; Caswell v. Greer, 4 Texas Civ. pp., 659, 23 S. W., 331; Pace v. Price, 45 S. W., 203; Graves v. George, 54 S. W., 262; Galveston, H. & S. A. Ry. Co. v. Keen, 73 S. W., 1074.) Hence we conclude that the supposed statement of facts must be disregarded; and, in the absence of a statement of facts that can be considered, of course we can not hold that the trial court committed error, as charged in the assignments presented in appellant’s brief.

Judgment affirmed.
