In my Lord Bargenie's case with Sir John Dalrymple, anent the price of Castle-Kennedy; the Lords found, that Bargenie's two receipts, extending to 1400 merks, were not to be presumed to have been allowed or discounted to Sir John out of the fore-end of the price of Castle-Kennedy bought by him from Bargenie; though there had been two or three countings betwixt them, posterior to the dates of these tickets, and new bonds granted; because they were yet in Sir John's hands unretired, and they would not have been left there if they had been discounted.
