In the action, Major M'Birnie against William Livingstoune, where the said Major had used witnesses, but had deponed, conform to a general discharge of satisfaction and complete payment, they being the parties who had paid the excise for transporting of goods, could not well use the said William his oath for clearing of the quantities, not having divided his probation by the act of litiscontestation;—the Lords would have some of their number to see the process, if the oath might yet be required.
