The record in th i case does not disclose that the entry was liquidated and both parties concede that it was not liquidated. Upon the authority of Woolworth et al. v. United States, 14 Ct. Cust. Appls. 81, T. D. 41583, the appeal is dismissed without prejudice io the right of the importer to file another petition for the remission of additional duties or to avail himself of such other legal remedy as may be proper.
