The affidavits do not disclose the issues raised by. the pleadings.

On appeals from orders, all the papers used in the court below must be contained in the record, and all such papers must be referred to in the order disposing of the motion; otherwise, an appeal from the order will not be entertained.

Neither party having taken any steps to correct the record, or objected thereto, the appeal should be dismissed, without costs to either party.
