The Lords demurred as to the Commissaries of Edinburgh's powers to confirm testaments in inferior Commissariots during a vacancy; but found that they themselves had power in case of such vacancy to name a Commissary, and accordingly named one for Lauder. (See Dict. No. 150. p. 7432.)
*** They did the same 3d November 1742, upon the death of the Commissary of Stirling, Thomas Christie, Supplicant. (See Dict. No. 152. p. 7433.)
