Hogg's salary as lecturer which arose from a mortification being arrested by his creditors, he alleged that it was alimentary and not arrestable as servants fees, and the creditors insisted that it is arrestable as Ministers stipend. The Sheriff found it arrestable, and Minto Defused an advocation. Hogg reclaimed, and was willing to quit L.20 sterling yearly of L.50 sterling to his creditors, reserving but L.30 for his own and family's use. Both President and Arniston seemed to think it alimentary and different from Ministers stipends; and the Lords remitted to the Ordinary with a view that he might remit with instructions agreeable to the lecturer's proposal.
