Some days ago on a report by the Ordinary on the bills, we found that hornings against inhabitants of Orkney and Shetland could not pass on less than 40 days by act 43d 1685, even on the Stewart of Orkney's decreets, because still the horning was by warrant of this Court;—and this day we found, that notwithstanding the act 1681 anent foreign bills of exchange extended to inland bills by the act 1696, the horning even on inland bills against the inhabitants of that country might not pass on less than 40 days.
