Alexander Brodie, being infeft in the barony of Kenmuir, whereof the lands of New-Galloway are a part, pursues a removing against the tenants of New-Galloway.
It was alleged for the tenants' not removing,—Because the town is erected in a burgh royal, and the pursuer produces no infeftment of the houses and tenements held in burgage.
The Lords repelled the allegeance, unless the tenants would allege that NewGalloway was dismembered from Kenmuir, and that the town of New-Galloway was infeft, holden of the King in burgage, upon the Viscount of Kenmuir's resignation.
