The Lords for expiscating whether the L.1000 sterling bond, taken in name of Sir Stephen Fox, or Sir Charles Littleton, for Mrs Martha's behoof, was Edward Ruthven's money or not; they ordained Mr David Hay, who paid it, and all other persons, to be examined; though some thought it could not be taken away but by her oath that she knew it was her husband's. Spot's design was, by constituting this debt, to make a ground of compensation against the L.200 sterling of liferent annuity she possessed out of the lands of Corstorphin.
