Upon an oath de meditatione fugæ, the Admiral granted warrant for incarcerating a person said to be debtor in a debt merely mercantile, till he should find caution judicio sisti et judicatum solvi.
A suspension having been offered, the Lords passed the bill as to the caution judicatum solvi; but refused it as to the caution judicio sisti. See Meditatio Fugæ.
