¶1delivered the opinion of the Court:
¶2The matters in dispute between the parties to this case have relation to payments on the note which is the basis of the action. As respects the controverted items of set-off pleaded, the evidence is conflicting, and treating the finding of the court as we would the verdict of a jury, as the rule is, it must stand.
¶3In support of the motion for a new trial, affidavits of newly discovered evidence were read, but as it amounts to nothing more than cumulative, if produced on another trial it would not be decisive of the case. The rule is well settled, it is not the practice to award a new trial to let in such evidence. Even if admitted on a second trial, it can not be known t' e result would not be the same. Gottschalk v. Hughes, 82 Ill. 484.
¶4There is evidence to sustain the finding of the court, and as there is nothing in the record to warrant a reversal of the judgment, it must be affirmed, which is done.
¶5Judgment affirmed.
