The Earl of Findlater claimed, as heritable Bailie of Regality over the barony of Strathilay, upon a grant from the Abbot of Kinloss, appointing his predecessor to be his Bailie within that barony, lying within the said regality; which was said to make him Bailie of Regality, as the barony was part of one; and this being a church regality, the Bailie's right, though not over the whole, was confirmed by the act of annexation; which plea was sustained.
