Mr Robert Burnet, tutor of Leys, being infeft in a tenement of land in Aberdeen, comprised from Mr Thomas Blackhall, his seasine was found a valid title, being under the hand of the town-clerk, albeit not registrate in the town's register, nor could be found in the clerk's protocoll.
Which the Lords found he had no necessity to prove; seasines within burgh being excepted out of the Act of Parliament 1617, and the registration thereof in the town's books not being required; notwithstanding this allegeance of nullity was proponed by another, whose seasine was recorded in the town's books.
