In the debate between the two kirks of Tulliallan and Culross, whether decimæ inclusæ could be burdened to make up a Ministers' stipend, where there was no free teinds in the parish aliunde; the Lords ordained tire allocation and mortification to be produced, and declared they would, hear the point in their own presence. Sir George Lockhart affirmed they might as well burden the stock, for such teinds were in effect stock. But it may be queried, if, at least the tenth penny mail paid out of these decimæ inclusæ by the 29th act. Parl. 1587, annexing Kirklands to the Crown, Art. 16th, may not be burdened with Ministers' stipends; See 10th January, 1662, Renton against Ker, No. 20. p. 15632.
