necessity_n to_o have_v the_o marriage_n private_o celebrate_v because_o of_o sir_n james_n his_o power_n and_o influence_n for_o the_o time_n the_o party_n go_v to_o the_o border_n and_o be_v there_o

also_o henry_n trotter_n of_o mortounhall_n and_o prestoungrange_n elder_a and_o libel_v they_o before_o the_o council_n upon_o a_o act_n of_o council_n make_v in_o the_o year_n 1668._o whereby_o it_o

leave_v to_o the_o mother_n and_o yet_o she_o and_o her_o complice_n have_v send_v she_o away_o to_o the_o border_n to_o be_v marry_v there_o to_o prestongrange_n by_o a_o out_v minister_n to_o the_o high_a contempt_n as_o he_o allege_v of_o authority_n he_o obtain_v the_o lady_n to_o be_v fyned_fw-we in_o no_o less_o than_o 6500_o mark_n and_o the_o rest_n in_o 3500_o mark_n and_o 9000_o mark_n to_o be_v give_v to_o himself_o for_o his_o pretend_a damage_n beside_o the_o legal_a fine_a of_o 1000_o mark_n impose_v upon_o prestongrange_n for_o his_o clandestine_v marriage_n and_o according_o all_o these_o fine_n be_v pay_v but_o it_o be_v declare_v by_o the_o claim_n of_o right_n that_o extraordinary_a fine_n be_v contrary_a to_o law_n the_o lady_n craigleith_n have_v now_o appeal_v to_o the_o parliament_n and_o obtain_v a_o reference_n to_o the_o commission_n for_o fines_n and_o forefaulture_n to_o have_v the_o same_o there_o try_v and_o examine_v in_o order_n to_o her_o redress_n and_o that_o she_o and_o prestoungrange_n have_v good_a reason_n to_o demand_v this_o redress_n appear_v first_o because_o the_o foresay_a act_n of_o council_n 1668_o be_v make_v upon_o the_o occasion_n of_o a_o particular_a case_n of_o a_o young_a gentlewoman_n be_v carry_v away_o without_o the_o consent_n or_o knowledge_n of_o her_o friend_n and_o can_v in_o reason_n be_v far_o extend_v since_o no_o man_n of_o sense_n will_v think_v that_o it_o be_v the_o meaning_n of_o the_o council_n to_o make_v themselves_o absolute_a arbiter_n of_o all_o young_a gentlewoman_n marriage_n as_o the_o word_n libel_v upon_o seem_v to_o import_v but_o so_o it_o be_v that_o prestoungrange_n do_v carry_v away_o his_o lady_n with_o her_o own_o her_o mother_n and_o all_o friend_n consent_v sir_n james_n only_o except_v so_o that_o this_o act_n of_o council_n concern_v not_o this_o case_n 2._o it_o be_v evident_a that_o even_o the_o council_n do_v not_o judge_v that_o paestoungranges_n case_n do_v belong_v to_o the_o foresay_a act_n otherways_o they_o shall_v and_o undoubted_o will_v have_v fine_v he_o in_o the_o equivalent_a of_o his_o tocher_n whieh_o we_o see_v they_o have_v not_o do_v but_o 3._o whatever_o be_v in_o this_o order_n of_o council_n more_o than_o law_n allow_v can_v not_o at_o that_o time_n nor_o be_v at_o any_o time_n bind_v but_o so_o it_o be_v that_o all_o that_o can_v be_v find_v in_o prestoungranges_n case_n be_v a_o clandistine_a marriage_n whereof_o the_o pain_n of_o law_n be_v only_o 1000_o mark_n 3._o as_o to_o the_o council_n order_n for_o sequestration_n it_o be_v not_o doubt_v but_o that_o the_o council_n may_v in_o certain_a case_n sequestrate_n but_o than_o it_o ought_v to_o be_v upon_o the_o hear_n of_o party_n and_o certain_o if_o party_n have_v be_v first_o hear_v the_o council_n have_v not_o grant_v this_o order_n and_o if_o the_o lady_n be_v both_o surprise_v and_o terrify_v to_o find_v her_o daughter_n take_v from_o she_o and_o order_v to_o a_o bishop_n house_n at_o the_o desire_n of_o sir_n james_n her_o nixt_a heir_n and_o so_o far_o contrary_a to_o her_o daughter_n education_n and_o both_o their_o inclination_n it_o be_v nothing_o to_o be_v wonder_v at_o but_o a_o matter_n every_o way_n excusable_a and_o can_v not_o just_o be_v construe_v a_o contempt_n of_o the_o council_n authority_n where_o sir_n james_n have_v proceed_v so_o illegal_o and_o have_v only_o impetrate_v the_o order_n upon_o his_o own_o peril_n 4._o as_o to_o what_o sir_n james_n pretend_v from_o his_o brother_n testament_n 1._o it_o be_v positive_o affirm_v that_o the_o recommendation_n in_o the_o testament_n be_v insert_v and_o interline_v after_o it_o be_v subscribe_v but_o 2._o whether_o it_o be_v so_o or_o not_o the_o word_n bear_v only_o a_o recomendation_n or_o advice_n which_o import_v no_o obligation_n and_o always_o leau_v a_o latitude_n for_o a_o more_o equal_a choice_n 3._o it_o be_v a_o most_o false_a
