1. Where testimony of an expert witness, referring to “this plat” and purporting to interpret the plat, was .rejected by the court as an unauthorized expression of opinion, an assignment of error upon this ruling, which fails to set forth a copy of the plat or its substance, is too indefinite to present any question for decision.

The judge was authorized to hold, upon conflicting evidence, that the location of the proposed railroad embankment was on the property of the defendant, and not in the street; and there was no abuse of discretion in refusing an injunction.
Judgment affirmed.
