1Opinion of the Court
Clare, J.:
The appeal was dismissed at last Term for ailure to print the record. The appellant moved at the sanie Term to reinstate, as required by rule 30. The reason assigned was that the neglect to print was the negligence of counsel. The Court has repeatedly held that having the record printed requires no legal skill, and that, if an appellant entrusts it to counsel, his negligence in such regard is the negligence of an agent merely, not that of .counsel.
