porter shall receive as compensation therefor the sum of fifteen
cents (15c) per hundred words for the original. Provided, further,
that the parties may, if they desire, prepare and have filed
a statement of facts on appeal which shall be concisely written
in narrative form, shall contain only the evidence of facts relating
to questions of which review is sought, and shall omit repetitions
by same witness, and all irrelevant parts of writing or
written documents introduced in evidence; provided further,

and answers and objections thereto when necessary or proper to

of the court thereon and the exceptions thereto, whether said
testimony be admitted or excluded by the court, shall be regarded
and considered as separate bills of exceptions, and no
formal bill of exception shall be necessary; provided further,

the parties from filing separate formal bills of exception as the
law now provides in case such parties elect to do so, where the
alleged error is not already clearly shown, and when -uch separate
bills of exception are filed they shall be prepared and filed
as otherwise provided by law, an election to present certain
matters by separate formal bills of exception shall not be considered
as a waiver of any other exceptions or objections shown
by the record."
