*551Abstract of the Decision.

1. Assault and battery, § 31 * —where proof of name of injured, party sufficient. A conviction for assault and battery held sustained by proof in the record of the name of the injured party, where it appeared that Anna Olson made the complaint charging the defendant with assault on Jonas Olson, and the evidence in the record shows that Jonas Olson was the husband of the complaining witness and the party who was struck and injured.

2. Assault and battery, § 36*—when judgment of conviction not improper. A judgment finding defendant guilty of assault and battery held not subject to the objection that it required defendant to pay money to the injured party, where the record did not so show, it appearing that the court attempted to induce defendant to pay the injured party’s doctor bill, etc., but the proposition was later rejected.

Mr. Justice Smith

delivered the opinion of the court.
