The question was upon Sinclair of Brebster, Whether he had right to vote at elections (which came before us pursuant to the late act 1743) who was infeft in lands, and teinds of his own lands valued above L.400, whereof the teinds had been separately valued in 1702 at L.62, but without these teinds the valuation did not amount to L.400? The Lords found he had a title. Kilkerran spoke against it, but did not vote. Strichen voted against it, and Arniston was absent. The rest were I think for it.
