In 1732, James Ruthven of Ruthven granted bond to the College of Glasgow under that designation; but in 1733 or 1734 he first took the title of Lord Ruthven, and then granted his bonds under that name. The creditors adjudged, and the College's adjudication, which was the first, was
from James Ruthven of Ruthven. Mr Moncrieff was not within year and day of the College, and therefore objected that the adjudication was null, or otherwise that the other adjudications where he was designed Ruthven were null. But the Court repelled both objections, and sustained all the adjudications.
