The question of law upon which the decision of this court is desired is not stated. Under such certificate we might be asked, as we were frequently before the adoption of the rule, to determine as to the sufficiency of the evidence to sustain the finding in the court below. We have frequently held that we will not entertain an appeal unless this rule is complied with. This rule took effect on the 1st day of January, 18 7S.
