At an election meeting, a freeholder having moved, that if any person should withdraw, after voting for Preses and Clerk, he should be held as having done so in order to avoid the trust oath; and, therefore, should be struck off the roll; a person having accordingly done so, a majority of the freeholders expunged him from the roll; and the Court of Session affirmed their decision. —See Appendix.
