An action was sustained against a tacksman to find caution, or else to remove, albeit there was not a whole year’s duty unpaid of the tack, and albeit the ground was laboured, and full plenished: But this was found, because the duty of the tack was a great duty, extending to 5 chalders of victual yearly, and the tacksman was a poor man, who was yearly supplied and helped by the pursuer in furnishing him of means for sowing of the corns, and of money to buy seed wherewith to sow the ground.
