   LEVY, J.

The case originated in the justice court, and was then tried in the county court. The record to this court does not contain a transcript from the justice court to the county court, and it is not otherwise made to appear that the justice court had original jurisdiction of the cause of action. The parties appear to have had notice of this defect.

The appeal is dismissed. Wells v. Driskell, 105 Tex. 77, 145 S. W. 333.
