The Lords, upon a representation given in by the Tutors of Sir Robert Gordon of Gordonston, found that neither he, nor his Tutors were bound, in the ranking of the Creditors on Sir Patrick Ogilvy of Boyn's estate, to depone upon the verity of a debt for which he the pupil was a creditor by adjudication. And therefore stopped any certification against his interest for not deponing, until he were of age to depone; and allowed his interest to be ranked in the mean time.
