The Government objected to the continuance, stating that the rakes involved in the decided case were definitely not of the type here involved and in reply counsel [266]*266for the plaintiff appears to have admitted that the construction features of both types of rakes were different. At the request of counsel for the Government the court marked the cases submitted.
