In action pursued by Alexander Stewart, servitor to my Lord of St. Colme, against certain tenants of the said Lord, it was found, That a tack set for service was sufficient, albeit it contained no other duty, and that, in a life-rent tack, a man had power to remove tenants, albeit it was not expressed in his tack, and that he having a tack of 8 bolls victual to be uplifted from the tenants, he might remove the tenants, quod est novum.
