The Lords found the mill-rent differed here from land-rent, and that the discharge of his accounts, which he got in 1683, did not extend to, nor comprehend a discharge of his intromissions with the rent of this mill for the year 1684; though it was alleged, that what was grinded in the year 1684 behoved necessarily to be but the corns of 1683, and so it was a year behind. Which the Lords repelled, having considered his entry and the custom of the place.
