A feu was reduced at the instance of the Earl of Melross against the L. of Bass, for not payment of the feu-duty by the space of two years, albeit the feu-charter contained no irritant clause, but the reason only founded upon the act 250 Parliament 1597; which reason was sustained, and sentence given thereupon, but no party compearing in the cause.
Clerk, Scot.
