        "text": "Bailey, J.\nThis was a suit brought by Morris against Bishop and Babcock before a justice of the peace, where judgment was rendered in favor of the plaintiff for $100 and costs. The defendants having removed the cause to the Superior Court by appeal, a trial was had in that court at the' June term, 1882, resulting in a verdict in favor of the plaintiff for $100. That verdict was set aside and a new trial awarded on motion of the defendants, and thereupon, on the 14th day of September, 1882, by the agreement of the parties made in open court, the cause was submitted to the court for trial without a jury, upon five days notice. The next proceeding shown by the record is under date of October 5, 1885, when, as the record recites, the cause being called for trial, and defendants failing to prosecute their appeal, on motion of the plaintiff\u2019s attorney, it was ordered that said appeal be dismissed for want of prosecution at the defendants\u2019 costs, with a procedendo, and ten per cent, damages for delay. On the 7th day of June, 1886, the defendants appeared and entered their motion to set aside said order of dismissal, which motion was overruled, and they now bring the record to this court by writ of error.\nThe record contains no bill of exceptions, and so the grounds for the motion to set aside the order of dismissal are not shown, nor is any exception to the order of the court denying said motion properly preserved.\nEven then if the court had the power at a subsequent term to vacate its judgment \u2014 and we are of the opinion that it had no such power \u2014 its decision in that behalf is not open to review-in this court.\nThe only question is whether the court, in dismissing the appeal, acted without jurisdiction. It is insisted that, under the order of September 14, 1882, the court had no power to try or dismiss the appeal except upon five days notice by one party or the other, and that as the record fails to show that any such notice was given, the order dismissing the appeal was without jurisdiction. Without pausing to consider carefully the effect of a stipulation by the parties to try a cause on five days notice upon the power of the court to take further .steps in the cause until such notice is given, we think that the ordinary presumptions in favor of the regularity of proceedings in courts of superior jurisdiction are sufficient-to sustain the judgment in this case. The record being silent on the subject of notice, it will be presumed that the court, before proceeding to dismiss the appeal, received competent and satisfactory evidence that the required notice had been given. It is a familiar rule that, in support of the judgments of the courts of superior jurisdiction, resort may be had to every reasonable presumption and intendment not rebutted by the record itself.\nWe find no error in the record, and the judgment will be affirmed.\nJudgment affirmed.",
