Cauthen et al. vs. The Barnesville Savings Bank.
    1. To cause a continuance, it-is not sufficient to show the absence of one’s client from providential cause ; it should also appear that his presence is necessary to assist in conducting the case.
    2. If counsel- voluntarily absents himself from the court, taking the risk of his case being called, that it is called and heard in his absence is no ground for new trial, at the instance of his client.
    November 21, 1882.
   Jackson, Chief Justice.
