GRAY, J.

¶1This suit was instituted before a justice of the peace in Christian county, to recover a commission of one hundred dollars, which plaintiff claimed was due him for finding a purchaser for defendant’s property.

¶2The cause was appealed to the circuit court and judgment rendered in favor of the plaintiff, from which defendant appealed to the St. Louis Court of Appeals, and the cause is here on transfer by that court.

¶3The respondent filed a motion to dismiss the appeal for failure of appellant to comply with the laws and rules relating thereto. After this motion was filed, the appellant filed a supplemental abstract of the record, and in passing upon respondent’s motion, we have considered this supplemental abstract. While the supplemental abstract shows the filing of the bill of exceptions, the motion for new trial or none of the instructions submitted to the trial court, are in the bill. It is so well known that matters of exceptions must be preserved in the bill of exceptions, that it is not necessary to cite authorities in support thereof;

¶4We have examined the record and find the petition states a cause of action, the judgment is in due form, and no errors of record appear, and as matters of exception are not before us, it becomes our duty to affirm the judgment, and the same is accordingly done.

All concur.
