Woods & Bemis v. Young & Co.
    The Court will not continue a cause for the absence of a witness, who has been summoned, if no attachment has been moved for, if the witness resides within one hundred miles of this place, although he resides out of this district.
   The Court

refused a continuance, because the plaintiff had not taken o moved for an attachment against his witness, John Wood, wh> lived at Port Tobacco, out of the District of Columbia, and within one hundred miles of this place ; not having decided yet that an attachment will not lie for a witness who resides out of the district, and within one hundred miles. See Voss v. Luke, [ante, 331]; Park v. Willis, November term, 1806, [post.]
