The question was, whether a horning executed at the market cross of Edinburgh, pier and shore of Leith, but only denounced at the market cross, against a person abroad, was sufficient to make sums bear annualrent. We all agreed, that if it was not sufficient to infer escheat, neither would it be sufficient to make money bear annualrent, however, it might be sufficient for caption; and as to escheat, I was for searching the records what was the practice. However the Lords did not think that necessary, and unanimously altered. Dun's interlocutor, finding annualrent due, and found that the horning did not make the sums bear annualrent; and Dun himself came into the same opinion.
