Date: The Laird of Rentoune

In the suspension by the Laird of Rentoune against James Greive, of Berwicke, the letters were found orderly proceeded, notwithstanding the reason that such a bargain could not have been proven by witnesses; because the charger, in such a bargain of victual, had delivered almost the whole money, it being in the beginning of the winter; and the Laird of Rentoune, suspender, seeing the markets rise, did not keep, and was alleged to have gotten £16 for the boll, where the charger had but £12, in case of failyie. He urged, likewise, upon a restraint by the public, but not verified; and I think the day of his delivery was prior; yet he intented for reduction, and urged for caution, because the charger dwelt in England.
