In the action betwixt Mr Patrick Shaw and the Countess of Winton, the Lords found, that where there was a quier and a kirk, that the parson, or his tacksman, could not be compelled to entertain, beit, or uphold the kirk, or contribute thereto, but only to uphold the quier; and if there was not a quier, that the parson or tacksman should pay the third of the stent imposed for reparation of the kirk.
