This action is brought by a minor; the amount involved is small; appellant has had two hearings upon the merits; confessedly something is or will be due to appellee from appellant.\nWe do not regard this as a case in which we are called upon to overlook defects in an abstract for the purpose of doing justice between the parties. The rules, regulations and by-laws of the company are not set forth in the abstract. Nor are its accounts set out so that the court can determine whether the conclusions as to them which are testified to, without the accounts themselves being presented, are correct.\nThe judgment of the Circuit Court is affirmed.",
