Warning made at Coldingham, whereof the kirk of Haymouth is a pendicle, was sustained by the Lords, although the warning was not made at Haymouth, notwithstanding the kirk of Haymouth was erected by the king into a parish kirk, and the same was planted with a minister, and the Word and sacraments had been used there divers years before the warning; because no new parish kirk can be erected but by Act of Parliament.
