The general issue was interposed and a trial resulted in a judgment for the appellant for the sum of $2375. Appellee appealed to the Appellate Court for the First District, where the cause was assigned to the branch court. There a judgment was entered reversing the judgment of the circuit court without remanding the cause, and . a finding of facts adverse to the -present appellant was incorporated in the judgment so entered. The errors assigned in this court question the action of the Branch Appellate Court in so finding the facts. We are without power to review that finding of facts, (Hecker v. Illinois Central Railroad Co. 231 Ill. 574,) and the judgment of the Branch Appellate Court will therefore be affirmed.\nJudgment affirmed.",
