The Earl of Cassillis being minded to serve himself heir to one of his predecessors, upon the day of his service gave in a bill, shewing that it might be, that the Earl of Wigton, who thought himself interested by the service, might press to debar him from secret hornings that he knew not of, desired therefore that the Lords might grant him in person to stand in judgment in case any horning were produced against him, and he should instantly find caution for satisfying the cause contained in the horning. The Lords refused the bill as a novelty.
