No. 18,814.\n(Not to be reported in full.)\nAbstract of the Decision.\nAppeal and error, \u00a7 1380 \u2014when refusal to set aside default judgment not an abuse of discretion. Refusal of trial court to set aside a judgment entered by default on failure of defendant to plead, held not an abuse of the trial court\u2019s discretion, where the only excuse offered for neglect to plead within the time allowed by the court was the fact that one of the attorneys of record for the defendant had been engaged in court upon important cases since the rule was entered and that he had been misled by the plaintiff to believe that no advantage would he taken of his failure to plead within the time specified.\nAppeal from the Superior Court of Cook county; the Hon. William Fenimoee Cooper, Judge, presiding.\nHeard in this court at the October term, 1912.\nAffirmed.\nOpinion filed March 9, 1914.\nStat\u00e9ment of the Case.\nMotion by Western Stoneware Company, a corporation. to set aside a judgment entered against the Company in favor of E. G. Lancaster. From a judgment denying the motion, the Company appeals.\nDon P. Pennywitt and Andrew L. Hainline, for appellant; Albert N. Eastman, of counsel.\nSamuel A. Harrison, for appellee.\nSee Illinois Notes Digest, Vols. XI to XV, same topic and section number."
