In Tait's suspension against Robert Campbell, apothecary, his removing, a practick was alleged, to have been decided between Thomas Wilson and Nicol Lardie, who pursued Thomas to remove from a brew-house in 167I: that the Lords superseded the removing till the Martinmas, in respect Thomas had some victual lying in the lofts, which he could not transport conveniently, nor get brewed off till Martinmas. But I saw the decreet, which mentions no such inducement moving the Lords, but only the ambiguity of a minute passed between the parties. And Tait contended the removing of his wines would spoil them more than the carrying away of malt would have done. Craigie alleged there was an old statute in Reg. Maj. anent the giving more timeous warning for removing from cellars than from houses; but he spoke dubitatively of it, and I can find no such act.
