Anent the action pursued by the Bishop of Murray against the Laird of Kinfauns, for reduction of a feu, for not-payment of the feu-mails, by the space required of the law, it was alleged by the said Laird, That he offered the said mail-duty to them having power to receive the same of the Bishop, being his chamberlain for the time.
