• 63 Ill. 290

Syllabus

<p>1. Sheriffs and coroners—of their official liabilities. The provisions of section 15 of chapter 99, Rev. Stat. 1845, are not disturbed by those of February 16,1857, and February 15, 1865, so far as requires sheriffs and other officers to pay over certain fines to the school fund—such new remedies being- cumulative merely.</p> <p>2. Retiring sheriff—continuing liability. Going out of office before the completion of an execution, by paying over money in his hands, does not absolve a sheriff from liability.</p> <p>• 3. Error—bill of exceptions. Error assigned on a point not set forth in the record, nor embodied in a bill of exceptions, not being before the court, can not be considered.</p>
