Howieson having obtained a decreet of adherence against Rae, his wife; and having charged her, under the pain of horning, to adhere, she suspended, alleging, that she durst not adhere propter sævitiam mariti. In respect whereof, he was ordained to find her caution to treat her lovingly, as became a husband to treat his wife, she making faith that she dreaded bodily harm.
