In the Chirurgeons of Edinburgh their cause against Patrick Cunninghame, apothecary, to get him discharged as unfree to exerce any part of chirurgery; the Lords having advocated the cause from the Bailies, and appointed it to be summarily debated upon the bill, yet he extracted an act of advocation; the Lords ordained him to answer presently, notwithstanding of that act. This was done upon Forret's report, because it was stolen forth after they were ordained to answer in causa presently. Yet, a week or two before this, they would not recal Cranston's advocation against George Heriot, though it was of an action of removing, and George had set the house to another tenant, and was engaged to enter him at the term, and they were taking instruments against him for not entering them, to make him liable in damages.
