In a contravention pursued by Bruce of Greenyards against Clackmanan, the libel was found relevant, because that Clackmanan struck the pursuer with his neif upon the breast, and drew his whinger and struck at him therewith, albeit there was no hurt done.
1610. January 13—In a contravention pursued by Bruce of Greenyards against Clackmanan, for two invasions of him for his slaughter, one in 1604 by Clackmanan's self, and another in 1609 by Clackmanan's servant Donaldson; it being urged for Clackmanan, That ane only pain of lawburrows should be granted, the Lords repelled the allegeance, in respect of the long distance of time betwixt the two facts, and that they were both personal invasions.
