In an action pursued by the Laird of Salton and Dame Isobel Hepburn, Lady Pitfinen, as executrix, at the least as universal intromissatrix with the goods and gear of umquhile Sir William Stuart, commendator of Pittenweems, it was found that the burgesses of Pittenweems might be witnesses against the Lady, notwithstanding that they had charged her for lawburrows, and had given their oaths that they dreaded her bodily harm, except that the said lawburrows had proceeded upon deadly feud and blood.
