“Tbe record fails to disclose jurisdiction in tbe court below. S. v. Patterson, 222 N.C. 179, 22 S.E. 2d 267. As tbat court was without jurisdiction, in so far as tbis record discloses, we bave none. S. v. Jones, 227 N.C. 94, 40 S.E. 2d 700. Therefore, tbe appeal must be dismissed on authority of S. v. Patterson, supra.” S. v. Morris, 235 N.C. 393, 70 S.E. 2d 23.
For such failure of tbis record to show jurisdiction, tbe appeal must be dismissed. Rule 19 (1), Rules of Practice in the Supreme Court, 221 N.C. 544 (553).
