BOYCE, J.
Tfie record in this case is missing, and it is said has been lost or destroyed.' No effort has been taken by either party to supply such record, though such facts were known to tfie attorneys some time prior to the time tfie case was set for submission. No briefs are on file.
Under tfie circumstances, we can do nothing but dismiss tfie appeal for want of prosecution.
