Smith versus Davids.
    A RULE for trial, or Non pros, was taken in September Term, 1787, and notice at bar was entered on the docket. The cause was afterwards continued, generally, ’till January Term, 1789, and no notice given.
    The cause being now marked for trial, the Plaintiff moved to put it off.
   But the Court

held, that the rule for trial or Non pros was continued; and that no new notice was necessary. If, therefore, the Plaintiff does not go on to trial, the Defendant is entitled to a Non pros.
