delivered the opinion of the Court:
We can not inquire whether the verdict was unauthorized by the evidence, for the reason that the bill of exceptions fails to show that a motion for new trial was made by appellan t and overruled by the court, and proper exception taken thereto by appellant. Boyle v. Levings, 28 Ill. 316; Pottle v. McWorter, 13 id. 454; St. Louis, Alton and Terre Haute Railroad Co. v. Dorsey, 68 id. 326. The certificate of the clerk in that respect is not sufficient. Id. See also Drew v. Beall, 62 Ill. 164, and cases there cited.
The only objection insisted on in argument, which we can notice, relates to the. form of the judgment. Appellant, in the declaration, summons, etc., is entitled guardian; but the judgment is against her personally. Assuming, as we must, that the evidence authorizes the judgment as rendered, the word “ guardian ” may he rejected as surplusage where it occurs in the pleadings and summons, and the seeming variance is cured by the Statute of “ Amendments and Jeofails.” (R. S. 1874, p. 137, chap. 7.)
The judgment is affirmed.
Jtidgment affirmed.
