MILLER, J.

This is a bill in equity, filed by the state of Alabama, through its solicitor, against P. H. Conner, to condemn a lot and hopse thereon under and as authorized by section 12 of an act approved January 25, 1919 (Gen. Acts 1919, p. 12), on the ground this lot and house thereon were being used by the owner to distill and manufacture prohibited liquors, contrary to law. The defendant demurred to the bill as amended. It was' overruled by the court. Then an answer was filed to it, denying the averments therein, and the court by decree granted complainant the relief prayed for, and ,ordered the lot sold and the proceeds of sale distributed as the statute directs. The defendant appeals from the final decree and assigns separately these decrees as error.

There are many grounds assigned in the demurrer to the bill as amended, but only two are insisted on and argued in brief of appellant. We will consider these, and presume the appellant waived the other grounds. Geiger v Gillespie, 207 Ala. 528, 93 South. 412; Shelby Iron Co. v. Cole, 208 Ala. 657, 95 South. 47.

Appellant insists the bill as originally filed and as amended does not sufficiently *326 describe tbe property sought to be condemned. Tbe original bill described tbe property as follows:

“Lot 1 in block 844, according to tbe map and plat of tbe Bessemer Ooal, Iron & Land Company, as recorded in tbe office of tbe probate judge of Jefferson county, Alabama.”

And it further described tbe property as owned by tbe defendant, arid that be, “on, to wit, October 3, 1923, bad thereon a one-story bouse, or dwelling bouse, and that tbe said premises, with tbe improvements thereon, were in the possession of and occupied by the said respondent, and that the said- respondent occupied and possessed said premises for a long time prior to October 3, 1923,” and it averred “that tbe above-described premises are also within tbe jurisdiction of this court.” This description of the lot is sufficient for it to be located and identified, and this ground of demurrer was properly overruled by the court. Acts 1919, p. 12, § 12; Johnson v. State, 205 Ala. 294, 87 South. 815; House and Lot v. State, 204 Ala. 108, 85 South. 382, 10 A. L. R. 1589.

Tbe complainant amended the bill by striking out these words, “Bessemer Coal, Iron & Land Company,” where they appear therein, and by inserting in lieu thereof these words, “Bessemer Land & Improvement Company’s survey of the city of Bessemer.” The appellant insists that this amendment worked a departure in the amended bill from the original bill as to the property to be condemned, and that the ground of demurrer 'pointing it out should have been sustained. This amendment did not change the property sought to be condemned by the original bill. This amendment simply makes more accurate the description of it. The original and -amended bill ' seek to condemn the same property, lot 1 in block 844, “with a one-story house or dwelling house thereon,” owned, in possession of, and occupied by the defendant on October 3, 1923, and which the defendant possessed and occupied for a long time prior to October 3, 1923. The amendment simply showed this lot appears in map or plat of the Bessemer Land & Improvement Company’s survey of the city of Bessemer,” as is recorded in the office of the judge of probate of Jefferson county, Alabama, and not in map or plat of Bessemer Coal, Iron & Land Company The court did not err in overruling this ground of demurrer assigned to the bill as amended. Buchanan v. Larkin, 116 Ala. 431, 22 South. 543, and authorities supra.

Did the court err in its final decree by granting relief to complainant by condemning the property, ordering it sold, and the proceeds of sale divided as the statute directs? The cause was tried on oral proof before the court. The testimony appears in the transcript in form of a bill of exceptions. This decree was rendered January 19, 1924. The bill of exceptions was presented March 13, 1924, and was signed by the judge on March 24, 1924. There is no note of testimony in the record, as rule 75, p. 1551, Code 1907, requires. Neither the complainant nor the defendant had the register to make a note of testimony, as this rule 75 requires. This rule applies to all cases tried in the circuit court in equity, The observance of it has been held to be exacting and mandatory. Neither the trial court nor this court on appeal can consider the testimony, when there is no note of testimony in the record, as this rule prescribes. When the trial court renders and enters a decree granting complainant relief, without a note of testimony as required by rule 75, the decree will be reversed by this court on appeal, as there was no testimony properly before either court to sustain the decree. Crews v. State, 206 Ala. 101, 89 South 205; Lunday v. Jones, 204 Ala. 326, 85 South. 411; Brassell v. Brassell, 205 Ala. 201, 87 South. 347; Hymes v. State, 209 Ala. 91, 95 South. 383.

But should the trial court render and enter a decree denying complainant relief and dismissing the cause without a note of testimony as required by this rule, then -this court on appeal will affirm the decree, as there was no testimony properly before the court, and it was the only kind of decree that could be rendered by the trial court under the record and rule. Watson v. Kirkland, 204 Ala. 655, 87 South. 93; Saxon v. Parson, 206 Ala 491, 90 South. 904; Winfield Lbr. Co. v. Southern Mfg. Co., 209 Ala. 614, 96 South. 756.

It therefore results that this decree must be reversed, and the cause remanded.

Reversed and remanded.
