The statute 1649, directing the Commissioners to report the value of all feu or tack-duties payable to any person, his Majesty's duties excepted, it was questioned, whether, on account of this exemption on lands holden of the Crown, the lands liable in payment of these duties were to be retoured at their full value, or with a deduction corresponding to their feu-duties.——The Lords found, That such lands ought to be retoured at their full value.
