        62.15  AMENDMENT -- CONTINUANCE.
         If any part of the causes are held insufficient, they may be
      amended, but the incumbent will be entitled to an adjournment, if the
      incumbent states on oath that the incumbent has matter of answer to
      the amended causes, for the preparation of which the incumbent needs
      further time.  Such adjournment shall be upon such terms as the court
      thinks reasonable; but if all the causes are held insufficient and an
      amendment is asked, the adjournment shall be at the cost of
      contestant.  If no amendment is asked for or made, or in case of
      entire failure to prosecute, the proceedings may be dismissed.
