Syllabus

<p>Appeals — Assignments of error — Rulings on evidenc —Failure to print evidence in assignment.</p> <p>1. An assignment of error to the action of the court in striking out evidence relied upon to sustain the appeal, is not in compliance with the rules, if the evidence is not incorporated in the assignment.</p> <p>Statute of frauds — Evidence—Nonsuit.</p> <p>2. The appellate court will not reverse a nonsuit, where it is not convinced, after an examination of the testimony, that the trial court erred in its view that the proofs were not sufficient to take appellant’s case out of the clause of the statute of frauds, which provides against the enforcement of a verbal promise to become responsible for the debt or default of another.</p>
