We found the charge of fraudulent bankruptcy against George Forrester, and that Robert his brother was partaker with him in his fraud, and therefore declared them infamous in the words of the act 1621. Ordered them to be pilloried at Glasgow, (where the fraud was committed,) 10th August next, with a paper on their breasts, “Infamous fraudulent bankrupt,” and then to be banished to the plantations in America for seven years. See No. 3. supra. (See Kilkerran's report of this case, Dict. Append. II. voce Bankrupt and voce Delinquency.)
