In the case of one Castles against , reported by Pitmedden, The Lords found the intimation of an assignation at a man's dwelling-house, when he was out of the country, null; and that the legal and formal method in such a case was to take forth letters of supplement from the Lords, on a common bill, and to execute the intimation at the market-cross of Edinburgh, pier and shore of Leith.
And yet if he have a family, an intimation at his house may sooner come to his knowledge than that other.
