BYBD, J.

¶1It does not appear that the defendant excepted to the charge of the court. The words at the conclusion, and this is signed and sealed as plaintiff’s.bill of exceptions,” are not equivalent to an exception, though we might infer that the word “plaintiff’s” is a clerical mistake for “ defendant’s.” On the authority of Milton v. Rowland, (11 Ala. 732,) Mahoney v. O’Leary, (34 Ala. 97,) and other cases decided by this court, the judgment of the court below is affirmed.
