Syllabus

<p>1. Pbactice—in the absence of bill of exceptions, ruling on motions presumed correct. Where a motion for leave to amend an objection to-the rendition of judgment for delinquent special assessments is overruled, and a motion to strike the objection from the files is sustained, and no bill of exceptions is taken showing the grounds on which the motion was made or upon which the court acted, it will be presumed that the rulings were proper. In such case every intendment will be indulged to sustain the action of the court below.</p> <p>2. Same—exceptions to ruling on motions, how preserved. There is no mode by which an exception to the decision of the court below on motions can be properly preserved, so as to make the action of the court reviewable on appeal, except by bill of exceptions.</p>
