Upon report of the Lord Ormiston, the Lords refused to examine witnesses, as to Drummelzier's concurring with Mr. Seton in the management of the Earl's estate by advice; because, advice and concurrence are general terms dipping in law; but ordained the witnesses to be examined as to words or facts they heard or saw Drummelzier say or do.
