I find in the day-book of interlocutors, that, on report of Lord Kilkerran, the Lords sustained the objection to a bill, that it stipulated annualrent 17 days before the date.

And, of the same date, The Lords found, on report of Lord Justice Clerk, That a bill was good, though it bore a clause with penalty conform to law, because, by law, there was no penalty due.

Fol. Dic. v. 3. p.75. C. Home, No 162. p. 274.
