Stuart of Grandtully gives in a petition, representing that where there was a process of sale of Sir Archibald Cockburn of Langton's lands, pursued by George Lockhart of Carnwath, and, by some agreement betwixt them, he was taken off; yet the process could not fall, seeing he had contributed to the carrying it on, and paid a proportion of the expenses; therefore craved the said process might not be given up, but he allowed to carry it on for his own and the behoof of the other creditors.
The Lords discharged the clerks to give up the said process to any party till they might consider the petitioner's interest therein. Vide January 1702, Nasmith.
