Thir two days were wholly consumed almost in the Inner-House (yea, they sat till one o'clock, which some affirmed unlawful,) in advising the Duke of Lauderdale's action against the Earl of Twedale, about the teinds of Pinky, within the lordship and regality of Mussleburgh, in which there were three points; one of the tack, another of the heritable disposition, and if it was annexed property, and the third was, if it was prescribed, since, in the English usurpation, the Duke of Lauderdale was nec valens, nec volens, nec potens agere.
