Lady Kincarden craved that her son's estate might also be rouped for the use of the creditors, as to the casual rent of coal and salt: which was done, but far below the former tack-duty; which was thought not to proceed as if the coal were become worse or wasted, but by collusion, that the superplus of the tack-duty might secretly come in to the Lady and her son.
But I think the creditors might, to avoid this cheat, take it in their own hands, and offer caution to account for more.
