In an action, at the instance of William Hamilton and Arthur Brown, upon the passive titles against Margaret Turnbul; for constituting, against her, debts due to the pursuers by the deceased Captain James Turnbul, in order to come in with former adjudgers; there being no compearance for the defender when the summons was first called, she was only allowed, at the calling by the regulation roll, to see the process in the clerk's hands: as had been done 18th November last, in the case of Grant against the Laird of Thorntoun. And the Lords resolved to observe this rule in all time coming.
