The Lords never grant diligence to cite witnesses from a different shire, to appear before arbiters, but only to cite such to appear before them as live in the same shire; and as to such as live in any other shire to appear before any commissioner to be named by the arbiters, and that within the shire in which the witnesses live; and in these terms granted deligence in this case.
