In a competition of adjudgers within year and day, the Lords found, That Sir Patrick Hepburn having paid only 10,000 merks to Margaret Scrimsour, for her adjudication of the lands of Ahinethy, he could only share of the price of the lands effeiring thereto, though the ground of Scrimsour's adjudication was 15,000 merks. This was a trysting interlocutor, by which Sir Patrick had so much advantage in another point as hindered him to reclaim.
