When a master ordinary in chancery made a report in pursuance of a decree or decrelal order, the cause was again set down before the judge who made the decree or order, to be proceeded with. Where a master made a separate report, or one not in pursuance of a decree or decretal order, a petition for consequential directions had to be presented, since the cause could not be set down for further direc Lions under such circumstances.
