Abstract of the Decision.
1. Account stated, § 5 * —effect of retention of statement rendered. Pact an account is rendered and retained without objection, after the expiration of a reasonable time within which to object to the correctness of the charges, tends to establish an admission by debtor of the correctness of the bill.
2. Evidence, § 259 * —when totals instead, of items competent to prove account. A book containing totals, held competent evidence' to prove an account where the itemized account has been destroyed by fire.
3. Appeal and error, § 472 * —what necessary to preserve objection to conduct of trial judge. Objection to conduct of trial judge in asking questions cannot be first urged on appeal.
4. Appeal and error, § 511 * —when general objection to secondary evidence insufficient. General objection insufficient to reach improper admission of oral evidence to establish the contents of a statement of account sent to the debtor, where failure to notify debtor to produce the original is relied on to show such evidence was incompetent.
