        "text": "Per Curiam:\nThis was an action of assumpsit, brought by appellee on a policy of insurance issued by appellant on the life of Harry L. Hall. The parties stipulated that any evidence might be given under the general issue that would be proper under any special plea, and that the cause should be tried by the court without a jury. The defense was that the policy never became binding upon the company, for the reason that the premium was not paid as required by the conditions of the application and policy. It seems the insured gave his note for the premium, which, at the time of his death, had not been accepted by the company at its home office, as the application and policy required. The trial court found the issues for the plaintiff and the Appellate Court affirmed the judgment. The company prosecutes this appeal.\nThe judgment of the Appellate Court is final as to all questions of fact. No question of any alleged erroneous ruling in the admission or rejection of evidence is raised. The questions discussed and in controversy are, whether or not the evidence was sufficient to justify the conclusion that the company was bound by the acts of, its agents in the acceptance of a note for the premium, or was estopped by its own conduct from insisting upon a strict compliance with the provisions of the policy. It is not claimed that the declaration fails to state a cause of action. As we are precluded from reviewing the judgments below upon questions of fact, and as no propositions to be held as law in the decision of the case were submitted to the trial court, we must hold, as we have held in many previous cases, that nothing is presented for our decision.
