Opinion

Willie, J.

—This cause is brought up by appeal, and no bond was filed in the court below, as required by the statute. We are not aware of any exception under which a county court may prosecute an appeal without first giving bond. This court has, therefore, no jurisdiction of the case, and it must be dismissed. (Burr. v. Lewis, 6 Tex., 76; Lyell v. Guadaloupe County, decided at present term. Ante, 57.)

Appeal dismissed.
