The Lords found, in the case betwixt the Laird of Cockburn and Mr William Gray minister at Duns, That Cockburn, being liable to pay certain bolls of victual betwixt Yule and Candlemas, might have paid the same upon Candlemas day; and that as he might have paid the same, he might have made offer thereof; but that in all cases of that nature, persons who are liable, and do make such offers, are not thereby liberate as to the greatest prices, unless the party be in mora to receive the victual, either the time of the offer, or six days thereafter.
