In an action of Walter Young, the son, against James Wilsone and sundry others, the Lords finding that James Duncan, agent in the cause, and formerly servant to Sir Andrew Birny, had forged an execution of the summons, and thereon stolen furth a decreet against sundry pretended debtors; they made a most strict act of Sederunt, (see my Collection of these acts,) against all indorsations on summonses in time coming; declaring, they will not only find them null, though they be only for the first diet, but also punish the formers thereof.
