The respondent’s counsel is mistaken in thinking that the facts are not before this court for review because of the absence of a certificate that the case contains all the evidence. That rule, although it has often erroneously been applied to cases tried before a jury, as the reports show, properly has reference only to cases tried before the court without a jury. Rosenstein v. Fox, 150 N. Y. 354.
In the present case the denial of the motion to set aside the verdict and for a new trial, and the exception to such denial, constituted a sufficient notice to the respondent of an intention to review the questions' of fact and imposed *426upon -him the duty of adding to the record any omitted fact essential, in his judgment, to sustain the ruling. Rosenstein v. Fox, supra.
In the present ■ instance, we are satisfied that the jury either failed to clearly comprehend the force of the receipt given by the plaintiff at the time of the transaction and the figures and computations based thereon, or disregarded them. In either event, the verdict should have been set aside and a new trial ordered. Streicher v. Third Ave. R. R. Co., 39 App. Div. 658.
The plaintiff’s testimony, unsatisfactory at best, and especially so when its variations from what he gave on the former trial are considered, wholly failed to explain that receipt or to break the force of such figures and computations, which demonstrate with mathematical conclusiveness that the sale was single and indivisable, as the defendant Joseph Baum claims, and not two separate transactions, as the plaintiff now attempts to testify.
The same principles which led to a reversal the last time this case was here on appeal still obtain.
Present: Scott, Giegerich and McCall, JJ.
Judgment reversed and new trial ordered with costs to appellants to abide event.
