The widow of a Peer being debtor to M'Donald in a certain sum of money, due by bill, he raised and executed a horning against her, and afterwards applied for letters of caption.
The Lord Ordinary reported the bill to the Lords; who were of opinion, that the widow of a Peer was intitled to all the privileges of a Peer, and therefore,
“They refused the bill.”
