By commission from the Lords of Session, my Lord Cardross's estate is rouped, and the Earl of Marr buys it, at 17 years purchase. The Lady Cardross complained, by a bill, that the rental was too low, it bearing no consideration for house, yards, plantings, and parks, which, in all sales, use to be valued; and, without these, the lands would give less. But the Lords refused to allow any thing for the house and yards; and ordained her to produce her factory and commission from her husband, now in Carolina.
