Arbruchel reported Morison in Leith, against the Lord Salton; being two objections against an arrestment:—1mo. That the writer was not designed. This the Lords repelled; in regard it was before the Act of Parliament 1681, and they offered to supply, by condescending on his designation. 2do. That one of the witnesses had only subscribed his name thus, “John Auld,” without adjecting the word “witness.” This the Lords also repelled, in regard he was called and designed as one of the witnesses in the body of the writ.
