Petitioned for a sequestration of his estate in terms of the late Act of Parliament. They set forth that their debtor had fallen under the description of the Act, by allowing his effects to be poinded; and that, though at present the petitioners could not produce legal evidence of the poinding, yet they prayed for warrant to cite the debtor, to show cause why sequestration should not be awarded,—or at least craved a diligence against havers for recovering the documents or other sufficient evidence of the poinding. The Lords granted the last, before answer; and superseded further procedure until the diligence should be reported: and this day, 3d August 1776, upon reporting a certificate of the poinding, the Lords granted the sequestration.
