Mr. John Mushet, schoolmaster, against the kirk-session of The Lords would not turn Mr. John's decreet into a libel; but in fortification thereof, ordained the minister and clerk to produce the session-books, to see if the articles of salary, house-mail, &c. claimed by Mr. John, were in use to be paid by the former treasurers; for Dean, the present kirk-treasurer, could not swear on what was before his time; and the Lords thought there was no need of forty years prescription to establish such dues.
