Practice. — Of costs to be taxed when an action is referred.
This action had been continued several terms under a rule of reference. At the last term, the referees made their report, which was accepted; but a question arising as to the costs to be taxed, the cause stood over to this term, for the direction of the full Court upon that point.

Opinion:
By the Court.
When an action is continued from term to term under reference, the party recovering costs shall be allowed to tax his travel at the term when the rule is entered, and his attendance from the commencement of the term to the day on which the rule is so entered; at the term when the report is made, he may tax his travel and attendance until the report is accepted, recommitted, or discharged ; and at each intermediate term, he may tax his travel and one day's attendance.
