In the suspension Adam Galt against Jean Nicoll, who had given 500 merks upon the wadset of his lands, with a back-bond for payment of 40 merks yearly,—the reason was repelled as irrelevant, bearing, That the suspender had a back-tack set to him for terms to run, the time of the warning, whereupon the decreet of removing now craved to be suspended was obtained by the charger;—who then replied, That the said back-tack contained an irritant clause, that, viz. if three terms ran in the fourth unpaid, the said back-tack should expire without any declarator; and if it did bide any, the same should be done before the bailies of Aire; so that, the same having been discussed before the said bailies, it needed no farther declarator.
