8th Cir.
1912
Check Treatment
CARLAND, Circuit Judge.

Richey sued Hennig in the superior court of Muskogee county, Okl., to recover the sum of $3,912.50, which he claimed was due him for labor performed and materials furnished in drilling for oil and gas. Hénnig removed the case to the United States Circuit Court for the Eastern District of Oklahoma. In the Circuit Court a jury trial was waived, and the court, after hearing the evidence, made findings of fact and conclusions of law, upon *780which a judgment was rendered in favor of Richey for the amount claimed. Hennig has brought the case here by writ of error.

Seven errors are assigned, six of which relate to alleged errors of the court in finding the facts. As there were no exceptions to the findings, nor any requests- made for specific or general findings, we cannot review the errors assigned, except,one.

Assignment of error No. 7 alleges that error was committed by the trial court in refusing to admit in evidence a copy of á letter written by E. O. Boggs to John M. Crawford September 7, 1909. We do not stop to consider whether a sufficient foundation for the admission of* said copy had been laid prior to its offer, as we are satisfied from an inspection of same that it had no relevancy t& any issue in the case, and. for this reason it was not error to exclude it.

Affirmed.
