Cautioner in a tack of excise for six years, his heir found liable, though not taken in the King's name agreeably to 39th act Henry VIII., but in name of the Commissioners for the King's use; 2do, Though the revenue could not be farmed beyond three years, (23d and 24th acts, 12th Ch. II.,) in respect this tack contained a breach in favours of the Commissioners at each two years, and the tacksman possessed the hail six years; and, 3tio, Found liable for what fell due after the cautioner's death as well as before, though it was doubted if cautioners for officers of the revenue removable at pleasure, are liable for what is collected after their death.
