The Earl of Murray being pursued for a merchant's account, referred to his oath, he craved a commission to depone at Dunybirsell, in Fife, in regard the sum being small, it would put him to as much expenses in coming over. The Lords granted a commission; but in regard the pursuer would either desire to be present, in person, at his deponing, or send one for him to interrogate, they burdened the Earl with the expenses of their journey from Edinburgh, to wait on the taking his oath.
