The clerk has copied into the transcript instructions given and refused, but instructions do not become a part of the record by the mere act of filing them in the cause. They become a part of the record only by being made a part of the record by. means of a bill of exceptions. Drew v. Beall, 62 Ill. 164.\nAs to what constitutes the record proper in a suit at law, and what questions arise upon that record, and what rulings and exceptions thereto must be preserved by a bill of exceptions and thereby made a part of the record, see Vancott v. Sprague, 5 Ill. App. 99.\nThe judgment of the Circuit Court will be affirmed.\nAffirmed.",
