only five days. A large amount of business was
done, however. During the term there were ss
cases disposed of, besides quite number of or
ders and DEGREES in Chancery, passed by the
Judge during the term. There are always large
number of cases settled at the cali of the docket
on the first day of the term, but there were more
than usual at the last term. Although the dock
ct appears formidable when it is being called to
those unacquainted with court proceedings, it is,
nevertheless, frequently not heavy in trials as
very large number ofthe cases which appear on
the dockets, are cases brought for the purpose of
obtaining judgments only, and about which
there is no dispute, and as a consequence, no
trial.
