The question was, Whether the office of King's Usher, or as it is called in writings Ostiarius, to which there is annexed a salary of L.200 sterling, which seems to have been in place of maintenance or living due to them for their attendants by the original grants, whether that office be adjudgable or affectable by creditors, and whether a judicial sale of it can be pursued by the creditors? After two hours reasoning it carried that this office was and is adjudgable. Pro were Justice-Clerk, Minto, Drummore, Haining, Dun, Balmerino, Monzie, and Tinwald. Con. were Kilkerran, President, Murkle, Leven, Arniston, et ego. Strichen did not vote.
