The Lords assoilzied from the process of declarator of the escheat, and found the horning null, because it did not design the rebel's dwelling-house, whereby the mean of probation is cut off, albeit it designed her relict of Gulman in Monachie, and so her dwelling-house was to be presumed to be there. Durie observes the like, 14th July 1626, Adam, No 87. p. 3748., where a horning was found null for not designing the dwelling-house, though it called him burgess of Ayr, and so he might be supposed to dwell in Ayr; yet he might be an honorary burgess: And, in an execution of a summons, a defender being designed by his style, it was found to supply the name of his house, because the Lords presumed he dwelt there.
