      J. Emott, for the defendants, on an affidavit, stating that two witnesses were aged, and could not, without great trouble, inconvenience, and expense, be taken before the Master, who resided in a distant part of the state, as witnesses, on a reference pending before him, moved for leave to take their examinations before a Master, in the county where the witnesses resided.
   The Court granted the motion ; and ordered, that these witnesses be examined before a Master in the county in which they reside, on interrogatories to be approved by the Master before whom the reference is pending, and on giving such notice as the said Master may direct; and that the defendants shall have liberty to use such examinations on the reference, saving all just exceptions.
