The only act required by respondent to make the bills of exceptions complete was to attach his seal to them. After having once signed and lodged the bills of exceptions with the county clerk respondent could not, after the time for presenting the same had expired, be compelled to sign and seal other and different bills of exceptions. LTor could he be compelled to sign and seal copies of the ones already signed.\nThe answer to the petition is complete and a demurrer to it will be overruled.",
