The College of Glasgow were creditors by bond in 1732, wherein he designed himself James Ruthven of Ruthven, having not then taken the titles, and in 1746 they adjudged from him under the designation in their bond, and had the first effectual adjudication. In 1733 or 1734 he took the title of Lord Ruthven, and the other creditors adjudged under that title. Mr Moncrieff being without the year and day of the Colleger's adjudication, objected to it as upon an erroneous designation, or if it was right, then objected against the others that they were erroneous and void. But upon report of Lord Minto both objections were repelled.
