¶1Complaint on a promissory note, made by the appellants to the appellee.
¶2Answer: General denial.
¶3Trial by the court; finding for the appellee; motion fora new trial overruled; exception; judgment; appeal. Assignments of error:
¶41st. Overruling the motion for a new trial; and,
¶52d. Insufficiency of the complaint.
¶6Eb demurrer had been filed to the complaint. The ground alleged against it under the assignment is, that a copy of the note was not filed with it. This is true, although the complaint states that such copy was filed, and would have been good ground for a demurrer; but the defect is healed by the verdict. This point has been *595directly settled in the case of Westfall v. Stark, 24 Ind. 377. The doctrine of common law intendment after verdict, and the construction of section 101, 2 R. S. 1876, p. 83, have been too frequently decided, and the reasons given, to need repeating here. Tomlinson v. Hamilton, 27 Ind. 139; Howorth v. Scarce, 29 Ind. 278; The Indianapolis, etc., R. R. Co. v. Petty, 30 Ind. 261; Brownlee v. Kenneipp, 41 Ind. 216; Gander v. The State, 50 Ind. 539. Besides, we have, in the present case,, not only the common, law intendment and the statute to aid us, hut the evidence is all before us, and the first thing we find in it is the promissory note described in the complaint. This proves the wisdom of the common law rule and of the section cited. Russell v. Russell, 48 Ind. 456.
¶7The appellants also insist that the amount of the finding is excessive. ¥e have examined the evidence in reference to this point, and are of opinion that it fully sustains the finding.
¶8The judgment is affirmed, with costs.
¶9Petition for a rehearing overruled.
