Mr. Rory M'Kenzie of Prestonhall being debtor, by bond, to Catharine Charters, he, a few days before Martinmas last, offered the money to herself and her Curators. They refused, because not timeously advertised to provide new hands for lending it out again; and it was not paid, nor offered precisely on Martinmas day.
The Lords found they were bound to take the money, unless the bond bore a clause of requisition; but that they behoved to get the annualrent of it since the term, if it carried to pay annualrent termly, quarterly, monthly, and proportionally.
