The abstract is wholly deficient in matters necessary to be shown by the record in a proper presentation to this court for review. We find no sufficient certificate of evidence, no exceptions preserved, no abstract of the pleadings or evidence. The appellant\u2019s counsel presents no argument or in any manner points out the errors upon which he relies for a reversal of the judgment. Under such a presentation we cannot do otherwise than affirm the judgment of the Circuit Court which, until the contrary is shown in manner required by the law, is presumed to be correct. Douglass v. Miller, 102 App. 345; Traeger v. Mutual Building Assn., 189 Ill. 304; Staude v. Schumacher, 187 Ill. 187. Judgment affirmed.\nAffirmed.",
