In the advocation by Somervaill and Gardine against John Stratoune, there was a reason of iniquity libelled, that the commissaries had repelled their exception of prescription in the Act 83, Parliament 6, James VI. Which the Lords found no iniquity, in respect of the reply, That it was for the entertainment of a pupil recommended by a letter of the father from Germany to the
defunct, whose executor pursues for the same. So the Lords remitted the process, reserving the modification to themselves; because the mandate was in writ by his letter: and sustained the same, 4th July also. Page 33.
