## Opinion text

Sherwood, J.,
Dissenting. — If no error was committed during the trial of the canse, as the foregoing opinion admits, I am unable to see why the judgment should be reversed. Will it he seriously contended that the defendant, had he been, present at the argument of the motion, could have made error appear, when none existed ?
