Anna Lawson, relict of Alexander Lawson, citizen of London, having recovered decreet against Bartholomew Kello of £14 sterling; John Lawson, pretending right to the same sum, and being to intent action for it, gave in a bill to the Lords, desiring that the procurator constituted for Anna Lawson for pursuing of the former debt, might find caution, both to make the said sum forthcoming to him, if he should obtain decreet thereupon, and likewise that Anna Lawson (although she was a stranger, et alterius fori,) might be obliged to answer to his pursuit before the Lords. Which desire in both heads the Lords thought reasonable.
