Justice-Clerk. The deed is signed by both parties: Will not this be sufficient evidence of the fact?
President. The prorogation cannot be supported: the naming an overs- mau is, in effect, a new submission, and it is certain that a submission must be in the form prescribed by the Act 1681.
Braxfield. There is a necessity of adhering to the Act 1681.
