¶1Opinion oe the Court,
¶2This was an action for an assault and battery alleged to have been committed by William Bachman upon Meyer Friedman.
¶3The evidence disclosed that out of one of those unfortunate and inexcusable quarrels which sometimes arise between neighbors, an affray had taken place in which Mr. Friedman, an old man, was beaten.
¶4We do not think that Friedman was free from blame; he made use of insulting and vulgar language. Bachman, instead of going away, deliberately came back, renewed the quarrel, and struck this foolish, insulting and, perhaps, intoxicated old man. " The damages assessed, $600, are in our view, under the circumstances, large — greater than we think ought to have been allowed—but, if disposed to do so, we could not set aside the judgment for that reason.
¶5No motion for a new trial is shown in the bill of exceptions. A motion for a new trial is not a part of the record, and does not become so by its being copied by the clerk as a part of the proceedings in the cause. Foreman v. Johnson, 40 Ill. App. 456; Gill v. The People, 42 Ill. 521; Graham v. The People, 115 Ill. 566, 569; James v. Dexter, 113 Ill. 654; Martin v. Foulke, 114 Ill. 206; Obermark v. The People, 24 Ill. App. 259; C. & N. W. R. R. Co. v. Benham, 25 Ill. App. 248; Shedd v. Dalzell, 30 Ill. App. 356; Daniels v. Shields, 38 Ill. 197; Cline v. Toledo, St. Louis & Kansas City Ry. Co., 41 Ill. App. 516; Firemen’s Ins. Co. v. Peck, 126 Ill. 493.
¶6A judgment will not be overturned upon the ground that the evidence was not sufficient to warrant the verdict, unless a motion for a new trial was made, specifying such ground. Reichwald v. Gaylord et al., 73 Ill. 503; Ottawa, Oswego & Fox River Valley Ry. Co. v. McMath, 91 Ill. 104; Emory v. Addis, 71 Ill. 277; Jones v. Jones, 71 Ill. 562; Daniels v. Shields, 38 Ill. 197; McClurkin v. Ewing, 42 Ill. 283; Alley v. Lunbert, 35 Ill. App. 593.
¶7The judgment of the Superior Court is affirmed.
