The Tailors of Edinburgh obtain a decreet of neighbourhood, as to their land in the Cowgate, against Nicol Hardy, writer to the signet; who presents a bill of suspension, bearing, that his brewhouse and building was conform to a contract betwixt his father and the incorporation in 1642, and betwixt himself and them in October last.
The Lords ordained Harcous to visit the ground and report; who did so, and settled them in sundry of the controverted points, and ordained Nicol to rectify some parts of his building. And there was an ambiguous clause in the last agreement, that he should raise it no higher than the present building. See the informations of it beside me.
