PER CURIAM.

In the above-entitled case, pursuant to the permission given in our opinion heretofore filed, the petitioner through her attorney appeared to show cause, if any she had, why the case should not be remitted to the superior court with direction to deny and dismiss her petition. At that time reasons were presented in support of her contention that the appeal should be denied and the decision for the petitioner sustained.

Upon consideration we are of the opinion that no sufficient cause has been shown to change our conclusions. Therefore the case is remitted to the superior court with direction to deny and dismiss her petition.
