On a petition of Cunningham of Comrie, complaining that at last Michaelmas the freeholders refused to enrol him, and that he had required them to appoint a diet for attending this Court, and on their failure, had intimated to them to attend this day,—the question was, Whether that intimation was sufficient to bring the freeholders into Court? But the Lords appointed all parties concerned to be served, with copies, and to answer ten days after service, as was done in the case of Sutherland. Vide 5th December 1740, (No. 7.) The cases were so far the same, that in both cases the complainers intimated a day to attend here. But in Sutherland there was not a formal requisition of the meeting to appoint a day.
