John Fleming of Carwood being indebted to many creditors, and having fled; upon a supplication given in to the Lords, that he was lurking in a place, &c. the Lords sent a messenger with the supplicant, and brought him before them, albeit he was never at the horn, nor letters of caption led against him; and, after, he was appointed to remain in a chamber, with his own consent, under his creditors' custody, for three or four days, in hopes to give them satisfaction. He was thereafter presented to the Lords, and committed to ward in Edinburgh.
The like passed March 1631, Fleming of Carwood and his Creditors.
