Power to require amendment of charge and to adjourn. For refusing adjournment to be recorded.--In any stage of the proceedings, if the articles of charge appear to the Commissioners to be stated with insufficient clearness and precision, they may, in their discretion, require the same to be amended, and may for that purpose adjourn the proceedings for a reasonable time. The Commissioners may also, from time to time, on the application of the person accused, adjourn the proceedings on the ground of sickness or other reasonable cause.
