¶1Opinion op the Court,
¶2This was a suit commenced by appellee against appellant to recover for damages caused by the latter’s stock and cattle getting through a partition fence and injuring the appellee’s corn, originally commenced before a justice of the peace and appealed to the Circuit Court; their trial was had before a jury and resulted in a verdict for appellee for forty dollars, upon which the court rendered judgment, from which judgment this appeal is taken. The only error relied on for reversal, is the giving by the court below, appellee’s second instruction, telling the jury that if it believed from the evidence that appellant’s cattle got on the premises of appellee by breaking through the fence dividing their lands, and that the said fence was sufficient to turn ordinary cattle, and the said cattle broke through the fence, and that it was a good and sufficient fence, then the appellee would be entitled to such damages as the jury might find from the evidence he was entitled to. The third of appellee’s instructions, however, defined what would be a legal and sufficient fence. This claimed error can not be insisted upon for the reason that the defendant’s instructions are not abstracted, and therefore the question is not properly raised, as all supposed error might be cured by those instructions, and this court may properly refuse to consider the objection. Westphal v. Austin, 39 Ill. App. 232, and cases cited. Chapman v. Chapman, 129 Ill. 390; furthermore the evidence was not all preserved in the bill of exceptions or may not have been, as only a certificate of the reporter is found in the record certifying that the bill of exceptions contained all the oral evidence.
¶3It lacks entirely the certificate of the'jndge that the bill of exception contained all the evidence in the case. The certificate of the reporter can not be substituted for that of the judge. In the absence of such a bill of exceptions as the law requires the presumptions are all in favor of the verdict and judgment, and this court will presume that the evidence was sufficient to support the verdict without reference to the instructions.
¶4The judgment of the court below is therefore affirmed.
