1. The function of a judge on appeal is to look into all that the magistrate has done to decide whether or not he has done his work properly; to see if he has left out things he ought to have kept in; considered matters he ought to have ignored; to see that he has warned himself about matters that he should be concerned about; and properly explained how he came to his decision.
