Arthur Buchannan and others granted a bond for L. 400 to Sir William Forbes, James Hunter and Cempany, which, with a horning on it denounced and registered, they assigned to James Young, who presented a bill upon the narrative of the assignation, craving a caption in his own name. But the Clerk to the Bills having refused to write upon it, Lord Eskgrove verbally reported the question to the Court, who ordered the diligence to be issued in the name of the assignee.
