Opinion op the Court,

Gary, P. J.

The appellant, by his brief, says that this case was originally tried before a justice of the peace and appealed to the County Court, and the supposed transcript was not signed by a justice, nor certified to by him in any way.

Upon these premises he bases a conclusion that the County Court had not acquired jurisdiction to proceed, but as he, in his abstract, only refers to the place in the record ivhere the transcript may be found, without any attempt to show what it is, we are not required to' look there for it.
