Mr John anderson, parson of Dysart, pursues removing from four acres of land designed to him for his glebe, against John Watson the heritor. The Lords sustained process and decerned, notwithstanding it was alleged for the defender, that only ministers of landward kirks, and not ministers of burghs-royal, could have glebes conform to the act of Parliament; which the Lords repelled, in respect the act of Parliament is only meant of such burghs as had no landward at all in the parish.
