¶1delivered the opinion of the court:
¶2Upon the petition of appellees, the commissioners of highways of the town of Maquon, in Knox county, and two individuals who joined in the petition, the circuit court of said county awarded a peremptory writ of mandamus against appellants, the commissioners of highways of the town of Chestnut, in said county, commanding them, as such commissioners, to take the necessary steps to lay out a road on the division line between the two towns, by drawing orders for the payment of damages awarded, notifying owners to remove fences, directing the road to be worked, etc. A writ of error was sued out from the Appellate Court for the Second District, and the record being returned into that court, the judgment was affirmed. This appeal was prosecuted from such judgment of affirmance.
¶3In the circuit court a jury was waived and the issues of fact made by the petition and the pleas of the defendants to the same were submitted to the court for trial, resulting in the finding and judgment in favor of the petitioners. The judgment of affirmance by the Appellate Court is conclusive of all controverted questions of fact, and the principal question presented and argued on this appeal.is one purely of fact, as to whether the evidence proved the giving of the required statutory notice by the commissioners of the meeting at which they proposed to take action- on the petition to lay out the road. That question not being in any sense a question of law, we cannot consider it. There was no objection to any evidence offered at the trial nor any exception to any ruling of the court. No propositions of law were submitted to the court to be held or refused, and the bill of exceptions contains no exception to the finding or judgment of the court. There is no assignment of error which we can consider. Bailey v. Smith, 168 Ill. 84; Aden v. Road District No. 3, 197 id. 220.
¶4The judgment of the Appellate Court is affirmed.
