An heir served in special to a tenement within Burgh, took a precept out of the Chancery to charge the Bailies to infeft him, which they disobeyed; and then he applied to the Ordinary on the bills, for a warrant to the Director of Chancery to issue new precepts to some other person to infeft him in
place of the Bailies, which the Lords refused, because of the act James VI., Parl. I, that sasines within Burgh be given by the Bailies and common clerk; but upon a new petition, they granted letters of horning against the Bailies to infeft him. See Sasine.
