Burnside having charged Bruce upon a bond, he suspends, and alleges Payment; and refers the same to the charger's oath: and, when he is deponing, he produces a ticket of 100 merks, and of ten dollars, in part of payment of a greater sum; yet the charger depones, That the whole sum was resting, and that this ticket was a part of another sum. The Lords rejected the quality; and found, That the deponer behoved to instruct that there was another debt resting at the time.
