rule of court providing such abatement where a case remained on the stet
docket for four continuous terms, etc. Laurel Canning Co. v. B. & O. R. R.
Co., 115 Md. 642.

no appeal lies from an order striking it out upon a motion made during

the same term. The effect of a judgment by confession is not substantially

different from a judgment entered in a contested case. Sunderland v.

Braun Packing Co., 119 Md. 129.
