This is an appeal from an order granting a motion for a new trial. It appears by a bill of exceptions on the order granting the new trial that the grounds designated in the notice of intention as those upon which the motion would be made were: “ 1. Insufficiency of the evidence to support the judgment; 2. The judgment is against law; 3. Errors of law occurring at the trial, and duly excepted to by the defendants.”

The last is the only one of the designated grounds above stated upon which the court could grant the motion. Neither of the other designated grounds are by the code made a cause for granting a new trial.

We are unable to discover in the transcript that any error in law occurred at the trial to which defendants, or either of them, excepted. In fact we do not find that anything that occurred at the trial was excepted to by either party.

It was, therefore, error to grant the motion for a new trial on this ground, and a fortiori on either of the grounds designated in the notice of intention to move for a new trial. (Sawyer v.
