His Tenants of Concardie

Tenants pursued for spuilyie suffer decreet to pass against them, as holden pro confesso;—they suspend, that the libel was exorbitant, and that it contained wheat and pease, where never any were sown in that ground, and desired to be reponed to their oath. The Lords, out of consideration of the exorbitant quantity and untrue quality of the corns, gave it to the pursuer's option, either to repone the defenders to give their oaths, or else to the pursuer to give his own oath de credulitate.
