    McMillan et al. vs. Davis.
    Where no motion for a new trial is made, and a case is brought to this court by direct exception, a brief of the oral and a copy of the written testimony should be embodied in the bill of exceptions, or exhibited thereto and properly identified. It is not sufficient tc state in the bill of exceptions that certain deeds were introduced in evidence, giving the names of the grantors and grantees, dates, and attesting witnesses, and stating that the deeds covered the premises in dispute. It is a copy, not an abbreviation of the written evidence which the rule of court requires; and a plaintiff in error cannot, by an ex parte abbreviation, claim a compliance with the law. Rule 10 of Supreme Court, (Code, 1882, p. 1357); 41 Qa., 420; 64 lb., 668; 61 lb., 492, 495 ; 63 76., 345; 58 76., 439,
    September 29, 1883.
   Writ of error dismissed.
