A prelate having made an heritable bailie of his barony, or regality, is not thought to have done that privative; but notwithstanding thereof, he may sit and judge himself whenever he pleases, but he may not appoint another bailie. Decided betwixt Francis Earl of Bothwell, and the Laird of Cessford bailie of the regality of Kelso.
