Donaldson

v.

N'neilage

1 SLR 49_4

Donaldson

v.

Ferguson.

Headnote:

These cases all involved the same question—viz., Whether, under section 9 of the Reform Act, a tenant who lets his house furnished for a portion of the year loses his qualification as a voter, as not possessing the twelve months' continuous personal occupancy required by the statute. The Sheriff decided in the negative; but after debate their Lordships reversed and sustained the objections.
