Mr Rose having voted in the choice of preses and clerk, and been chosen clerk himself, the trust-oath was put to him, but refused by him, on the ground, that being elected clerk, he had resolved not to vote in any question that should be agitated at the meeting. The freeholders refusing to strike him off the roll, the Court of Session reversed their judgment. See Appendix.
