He pleaded not guilty, was tried and convicted, and appealed to this court.\nIn the bill of exceptions in this case, after the statement of the testimony of witnesses, it is said: \u201cThis is not all the evidence introduced in the case. The evidence introduced was sufficient to support the verdict of the jury.\u201d We are precluded by this statement from inquiring into the sufficiency of the evidence to sustain the verdict of the jury; all the evidence adduced at the trial not being before this court.\nThe appellee, by its Attorney General, confesses that the court erred in refusing to instruct the jury, at the request of appellant, as follows: \u201cIf you find from the evidence in this case that the sexual intercourse was had prior to any promise of marriage, if you find a promise of marriage was ever made, then the defendant is not guilty, and you should acquit.\u201d This request and sixteen others for instructions were made by the appellant, and were refused by the court, at the same time, and he excepted to the refusal collectively. As one or more of the requests and the instructions thereby asked were bad, none of them can lawfully be considered on appeal. Young v. Stevenson, 75 Ark. 181; Kansas City Sou. Ry. Co. v. Morris, 80 Ark. 528, 535.\nJudgment affirmed.",
