Robert Fleming, printer in Edinburgh, applied by petition to the Dean of Guild, shewing, That Ure, proprietor of a house immediately above one of his, in a close near the Cross, had set the same to a fencing-master, the noise of whose school was such a nuisance, as destroyed the use of his house, which nobody would live in; and thereupon the Dean of Guild having visited the houses, discharged Ure to set his house longer for the said use.
Ure offered a bill of suspension, which the Lords refused.
