APPROBATE and REPROBATE.
The decision, 10th June 1748, Sir David Cunningham against Whitefords, is a decision not approved of; it was appealed from. But, before pleading the appeal in the House of Lords, it was compromised by payment of a large sum of money; and Hardwicke, chancellor, said it was compromised wisely. This day, 20th July I776, in the case of John Donaldson, bookseller, against Thomson,
it was much founded on, in reclaiming against an interlocutor of Lord Monboddo. The above passed among the Lords on the occasion. The petition was refused without answers.
