Pollock, and others, in whose names ground had been purchased for a meeting-house for the congregation, sued for seat rents, and obtained decreet, and a like decision happening among them, as is mentioned supra, 30th June, Bryson against Wilson. The decreet was suspended, for that the congregation had changed the managers; which coming before Dun, he found, that after the chargers should be reimbursed of the sums laid out by them, they ought to denude to the congregation. But upon a reclaiming bill and answers, we found the original trustees had the right of administration, and in case of a sale, the price to be divided among the contributors, and that the pretended congregation had no action. But here there was no obligement to denude, as in the former case.
