One gives in a bill, representing some legal objections he had against witnesses who were adduced against him, and which he could not instantly prove; and therefore craved a diligence for leading witnesses, who would not ultroneously appear to prove his objections.
The Lords granted a diligence; though these objections used to be summarily and instantly verified by the parties' oaths, or otherwise.
