See the prior and posterior parts of the report of this case, in the Index to the Decisions.
1684. December 18.—In the Lady Wemys and Applecross's cause, mentioned 3d December, the Chancellor openly rebuked Applecross at the bar, that his agent had given his servant a dollar, to convey the information to him; and that he would not allow his servants to take any money from the people. And though the king's advocate excused it, by terming it a common practice, yet he declared he would not suffer it.
The President and the Lords were silent; and some of them appeared not to be much of the Chancellor's opinion.
