In the mutual petitions between John Chancelor, merchant in Edinburgh, and Captain Sletzer, the Lords refused to examine John Trotter, the cedent, if the debt was paid, to the prejudice of Chancelor the assignee; though all his assignation was only a precept from Trotter on Sletzer, not having onerous causes per expressum; and seeing Sletzer decline to depone, they held him as confessed, though he was departed for London.
