SEC. 78. Hearing of cause at place other than office of justice of the peace.—Upon written request of both parties to a cause, a justice of the peace may hear the same at any suitable place in hrs jurisdiction; and in such case his necessary travel expense from his official station to the place of trial, and upon return therefrom, not exceeding two and one-half pesos per day in all, may be taxed as costs, but if the trial of more than one of such cases is requested in a particular locality, he shall arrange to try them as nearly as possible at the same time and place and shall divide the travel expense among them proportionately to the time consumed in the trial of each case.
