Syllabus

<p>SYLLABÚS BY THE COURT.</p> <p>1. Trial — Motion for Continuance — Absent Witness — Judicial Discretion. No abuse of discretion is shown in refusing the application of a corporation defendant for a continuance in order to procure the attendance of its president, who had absented himself with knowledge that the case had been set for trial.</p> <p>2. Lease — Landlord’s Promise to Repair. Where a ■written lease provides that repairs are to be made by the tenant, the landlord’s subsequent promise to make them is not enforceable, unless supported by a new consideration.</p> <p>3. Same — No Implied Obligation to Make Repairs. The landlord is not under any implied obligation to make repairs.</p>
