There was much dispute thir days respectivè; the 24th day, in the Laird of Rentone his process against the Lady Aytoune; and on the 27th, in the process Renie and Makane against Cuninghame, for some chalders of salt: anent insisting upon process after litiscontestation, and proponing of exceptions to be verified instantly, after witnesses had been received, and probation renounced. But the Lords, as they thought the first dispute idle, so they would not, in the other, infringe nor loose the form of process, except the pursuer would agree thereto. Yet they gave liberty to propone their exception, by way of suspension, and to prove it as in a reduction, the same consisting in facto.
