It was questioned among the Lords, whether an inhibition could be sustained, albeit the execution did not bear a copy to have been affixed at the market cross; and it was resolved as to the future, it should be declared, that executions of inhibitions should be null, unless copies were affixed; in respect there can be no executions without giving of copies, either personally, or at their dwelling-house; and when the lieges are inhibited at the market cross in general, so that a copy cannot be given to every person, it ought to be left at the market cross in subsidium; but, because it was informed, that many executions did not bear copies to be left at the market cross, the Lords did forbear to give answer as to the inhibition in question, until the stile and custom should be tried.
