Syllabus
<p>Appeals — Error—Harmless erren — Charge of court.</p> <p>A judgment will not be reversed because of an error in the charge, which was not an erroneous statement of a fact upon a decisive point in the case, but a misstatement that was wholly unimportant, except, that it might tend to divert the attention of the jury from a ground of dispute collateral to the main question; and this is especially the case where the attention of the court was not called to the misstatement at the time.</p>
Judges: Brown, Fell, McIlvaine, Mestrezat, Mitchell, Potter, Stewart
