The Lords repelled the reasons of suspension, that the debt was arrested in the Laird of Nevoy's hands, who was correus debendi, and conjunct principal in the bond with Ruthvens; seeing the arrestment was of an old date, past five years ago, and Nevoy was dead, and no process of forthcoming insisted in; but, to secure the debtor, Ruthvens, they ordained Duncan, the charger, to find caution to secure them against the arrestment.
