Mr. Justice Harkeb

delivered the opinion of the court.

This suit was commenced by appellant to recover $108.80 claimed to be due him as grain rent from appellee. The case was tried by the court, a jury having been waived, and the court found the issues for the defendant and rendered judgment against the plaintiff for costs. The alleged error on which a reversal is sought, is that the finding of the court is against.the evidence. It nowhere appears in the bill of exceptions that appellant took any'exceptions le the finding of the court. Without an exception, and without its being preserved in the bill of exceptions, the alleged error can not be considered by us. Exceptions to the finding on which a judgment is based must appear in the bill of exceptions. It will not suffice for the exceptions to appear in the entry orders made by the clerk. Parsons v.
