Head Matter:
Wendover v. Ball.
A BAIL piece had been filedj containing the name of one real person, who had, at the same time, filed an affidavit of justification, and of one nominal person» Á rule was then taken to bring in the body, or show cause why ah attachment should not issue against the sheriff - and now Wood for the plaintiff, moved that the rule be made absolute»

Opinion:
Per Curiam.
The practice of inserting only one teal person in bail-pieces, has generally obtained, but has passed because there has been no opposition to it. It is requisite, if the plaintiff exacts it, that two real persons should become bail.
But the sheriff stipulating to put in additional bail, the motion was waived.
General Rule.
Saturday.
ORDERED, That on trials, one counsel only on each side shall examine or cross-examine a witness; and that two counsel only on each side shall sum up the evidence to the jury.
