The Lords at this time by their act renewed that part of the act of Parliament, and regulations about the calling of the roll, and what is not brought to an act or decreet to-day, that it may be marked and called to-morrow; and in case the pursuer insist not the second time, then to delete it; and not to be heard again, till it be of new enrolled, and come in behind all that is before it in the book of enrolment. By which rule, if observed, they sweep clean before them. But it was made for the weak Lords; because many pursuers shunned to insist before them. Vide this renewed 1st November, 1677, No. 644.
