The Lords found the instructions produced by Spango, of 1600 merks, as an article of his discharge in the account, not fully probative that the money came to the Duke's use; and the question being stated, whether the Duke's oath or Spango's should be taken thereon, it carried Spango's. But being taken ex officio, they would not hold it as a full probation, but ordained him also, on a diligence, to recover Francis Kinloch's books, if any thing of this was stated there.
