Found, That a citation in a poinding of the ground against the heritor and tenants, deelaratorie, before the first term of payment of annualrent, when no more diligence could be used, is preferable to any posterior public infeftment intervening before the said first term; but that such a citation will not prefer in prejudice of these, if the annualrenter do not exact diligence to obtain payment, immediately after elapsing of the said first term.—July 8, 1691: And yet confirmation or declarator was competent before the first term; and a bare citation may be dangerous.
