Opinion

Per Curiam.

The judgment brought up by the writ in this case must be set aside. A justice of the peace loses jurisdiction of a cause when absent on the day to which a previous hearing has been adjourned, and he cannot afterwards adjourn the cause and proceed with the trial.

This case is controlled by the case of McKenna v. Murphy, 39 Vroom 522.

The judgment is reversed, with costs.
