258. Continuance of suit is effected by filing in the office of the court and serving on all the parties in the case an appearance and an affidavit setting forth the facts which give rise to the continuance.
The right to continue the suit may, within ten days of such appearance, be contested in the ordinary way; in default of such contestation, attested by a certificate of the prothonotary, the continuance is held to be admitted.
