Elliott, J.

The appellee insists that there is no bill ‍‌‌‌‌‌‌​​​​‌​‌‌‌‌​​‌‌​​​‌‌‌‌​‌‌​​​​‌‌‌‌‌‌​‌‌‌‌​‌​​​​​​​​‌​​‌​‌​‌‌‌‌‌​‌​‌‌​‌​‌‌​​​​‌​​‌​​‌​​‌‌‌​‌​‍of exceptions in the record. On the back of the bill is written : “ Tendered to ‍‌‌‌‌‌‌​​​​‌​‌‌‌‌​​‌‌​​​‌‌‌‌​‌‌​​​​‌‌‌‌‌‌​‌‌‌‌​‌​​​​​​​​‌​​‌​‌​‌‌‌‌‌​‌​‌‌​‌​‌‌​​​​‌​​‌​​‌​​‌‌‌​‌​‍me for approval and signature, March 15th, 1886.” This is not sufficient. The statute in express terms requires ‍‌‌‌‌‌‌​​​​‌​‌‌‌‌​​‌‌​​​‌‌‌‌​‌‌​​​​‌‌‌‌‌‌​‌‌‌‌​‌​​​​​​​​‌​​‌​‌​‌‌‌‌‌​‌​‌‌​‌​‌‌​​​​‌​​‌​​‌​​‌‌‌​‌​‍that “the date of the presentation shall be stated in the bill of exceptions.” R. S. 1881, ‍‌‌‌‌‌‌​​​​‌​‌‌‌‌​​‌‌​​​‌‌‌‌​‌‌​​​​‌‌‌‌‌‌​‌‌‌‌​‌​​​​​​​​‌​​‌​‌​‌‌‌‌‌​‌​‌‌​‌​‌‌​​​​‌​​‌​​‌​​‌‌‌​‌​‍section 629. It has been expressly decided that a statement on the margin or on the back ‍‌‌‌‌‌‌​​​​‌​‌‌‌‌​​‌‌​​​‌‌‌‌​‌‌​​​​‌‌‌‌‌‌​‌‌‌‌​‌​​​​​​​​‌​​‌​‌​‌‌‌‌‌​‌​‌‌​‌​‌‌​​​​‌​​‌​​‌​​‌‌‌​‌​‍of the bill is not sufficient. Orton v. Tilden, 110 Ind. 131 (139).

Judgment affirmed.
