This conference between the Court of Session and the Barons of Exchequer, in order, to ascertain whether the Principality at the death of Frederick Prince of Wales descended to his son, or reverted to the Crown, is stated in the notes nearly in the same words as in the text. The opinions of the Judges are in the notes mentioned a little differently thus: “The President was clear that it is in the Prince, and I incline to the same opinion, for reasons I have set down apart, and I believe Milton is of the same opinion, but Kilkerran clear against it, and the Barons seemed generally to lean to his opinion.”
