¶1The record in this cause is in so- imperfect a condition as not fairly to present any question for our consideration.
¶2A paper is filed with the record, purporting to be the brief of the appellant, but it does not, either in form or in substance, contain what is necessary to constitute a brief under the rules and usages of this court.
¶3On motion of the Attorney General, the appeal is dismissed, at the costs of the appellant.
