    "head_matter": "Mathilda A. Ford, Appellee, v. Percy James Ford, Appellant.\nGen. No. 20,251.\n(Not to he reported in full.)\nAppeal from the Circuit Court of Cook county; the Hon. Jesse A. Baldwin, Judge, presiding. Heard in the Branch Appellate Court at the March term, 1914.\nAffirmed.\nOpinion filed March 11, 1915.\nStatement of the Case.\nBill by Mathilda A. Ford against Percy James Ford for separate maintenance. From a final decree entered in that cause on July 19, 1913, the complainant perfected an appeal to the Appellate Court. Complainant then filed a petition praying for an order requiring defendant to make suitable allowance for temporary alimony pending said appeal and for solicitor\u2019s fees and expenses in defending same. On the hearing had on the petition and answer, the chancellor entered a decree requiring defendant to pay complainant during the pendency of the appeal the sum of thirty dollars per week, from which decree defendant appeals.\nAbstract of the Decision.\n1. Appeal and error, \u00a7 1002 \u2014when statements in answer not considered. Where the certificate of evidence merely presents an answer as a verified pleading on file, and does not show that it was offered in evidence, the court, on review, cannot consider the facts set forth therein in support of defendant\u2019s contention that the decree should be reversed.\n2. Appeal and error, \u00a7 1302*\u2014when chancellor presumed to have judicially noticed decree. Upon appeal from a decree awarding expense money and counsel fees pending an appeal from a decree in a separate maintenance proceeding, upon proceedings supplementary to the original decree and after hearing upon the pleadings and transcript of the testimony taken upon the trial of the cause and the final decree therein, it will be presumed that the chancellor in arriving at his conclusions took judicial notice of the record upon which the original decree was entered and of that decree itself.\n3. Evidence, \u00a7 4*\u2014when court records judicially noticed. In awarding expense money and counsel fees pending appeal from a decree in separate maintenance proceedings, the chancellor may take judicial notice of the record and proceedings in the court.\n4. Appeal and error, \u00a7 1034*\u2014what not judicially noticed. On appeal from a decree in a supplementary proceeding awarding expense money and counsel fees pending an appeal from a decree in separate maintenance proceedings, the court cannot take judicial notice of the record in the original proceeding.\nBeach & Beach, for appellant.\nBrundage, Landon & Holt and Bluim & Teed, for appellee.\nSee Illinois Notes Digest, Vols. XI to \"XV, and Cumulative Quarterly, same topic and section number.\nSee Illinois Notes Digest, Vols. XI to XV, and Cumulative Quarterly, same topic and section number."
