Jones arrested betwixt twelve at night of Sunday, the 15th of May, and one in the morning of the 16th, and Thomas Grant arrested at five in the morning, and Jones arrested again at the same hour. President, Arniston, and I, doubted whether arrestment at midnight is legal. I moved another doubt, that the first arrestment depended on a few minutes, viz, Whether before twelve at night or after? They notwithstanding preferred Jones, seven to seven. Only the President had no vote. 26th February 1745, Adhered.
