The late Earl of Selkirk, superior of the lands of Balgray, having made a purchase of the property, but without completing the same by a resignation ad remanentiam, the Duke of Hamilton, his heir of conquest, claimed the same, as being a separate subject, not consolidated with the superiority. The Lords found, That they belonged to the Earl of Rutherglen, who was heir of investiture of the superiority; and the same was found with regard to the teinds of Crawford, purchased in by the defunct, the lands being entailed upon the Earl of Rutherglen.
