The Lords, in respect of the act 1696 anent notour bankrupts, refused the Lord Belhaven's petition without answers, for they thought the petitioner's Court* was not by that act so much as competent to judge of this crime of fraudulent bankruptcy, and far less can he repledge; and at 12 o'clock they proceeded to the examination of the prisoner.
* The Court of Wardenry in the Mint.
