In the action pursued by Elizabeth Duff, daughter to umquhile Thomas Duff, tailor, against her debtors; though many of the sums pursued for were very in-considerable, and far within 200 merks, as to each particular person's debt, which. by the Act 1672, are appointed to be pursued in prima instantia before inferior courts, yet the process was sustained before the Lords, because the debtors dwelt in several shires, conform to the exception in the said Act.
