Sir James Scot having a pension from the king, of the victual paid by the feuars of Kings-barns, and charging therefore; and the feuars suspending, that they had never been in use to pay the bolls to the king's chamberlain, nor his officers, at no time preceding, but only the prices modified by the Lords of Exchequer, which they were still content to pay to the pensioner, as they should modify the same;—the Lords found that the feuars were not holden to do to the pensioner but as they were in use before to pay to the king's treasurers and officers, and therefore that they were only subject to him to pay such prices as the Lords of Exchequer should modify for the feu-farm-duties.
