[Fac. Coll. IX. 209; Dict. 1976.]
Hailes. If the argument for the defender be good, all the rights of the in-corporation
of bakers will be annihilated. All that can remain with them is the privilege of having ovens within the liberties of the city; a privilege neither useful nor profitable. As to the privilege granted by the Dean of Guild, he cannot grant a privilege inconsistent with the rights of a company over which he has no power; and indeed he does not seem to have meant to grant it. On the 4th December 1783, “The Lords decerned against the defender;” adhering to the interlocutor of Lord Braxfield.
Act. R. Sinclair. Alt. W. C. Little.
