17317139s.l.: s.n. 1731. 4to pp. 32. Extracted from a volume. First and last leaves soiled gatherings largely detached inner blank corner torn from final leaf. A petition on behalf of the the trustees for the creditors of John Lowis of Merchistoun 1681-c.1754 who had wasted a substantial inheritance and fallen into bankruptcy against the notorious rake rapist and gambler Colonel Francis Charteris 1675-1732 who claimed preference in settlement for his debts. The trustees allege that Charteris who had amassed a considerable fortune through gambling and the South Sea Bubble and had recently been pardoned possibly through bribery following a sensational trial and conviction for rape had won a small bill from Lowis in gaming and then through usury extortion and blackmail raised the sum to nearly £6000 over a million pounds in modern money but never claimed any payment until the bankruptcy was declared rendering the debt null under the Bankruptcy Act of 1696. The Colonel died during the case and it proceeded against his heirs being appealed back and forth up to the Lords who eventually decided in favour of the trustees. ESTC records a petition against Lowis during his bankruptcy in 1729 and several documents of the case against Charteris being appealed but has no record of this initiating action. Not in ESTC. [s.n.] unknown
17427123Edinburgh: s.n. 1742. Single folio leaf stab-holes to gutter. A little soiled and marked slight creasing and short tears to edges. Substantial manuscript annotation to verso. The petition of Alexander Denham leaseholder against Archibald Stewart advocate. Stewart had terminated Denham’s lease on grounds of misconduct by Denham’s father Sir Robert but after various claims and appeals it was found that Robert Denham had not in fact violated the lease and the terms under which it was ended were not in fact in the agreement in the first place. Denham seeks sequestration of the relevant estate so that his income can be restored. This copy bears an annotation by Alexander Carmichael WS addressed to Stewart’s advocate detailing when the petition will be submitted to the Lords. Not in ESTC. [s.n.] unknown

17427119s.l.: s.n. 1742. Folio broadside 36 x 23cm printed recto only. Stabholes from stitching at one edge. Some light soiling formerly folded twice. A complaint raised by a brewer and distiller in Glasgow against his son from his first marriage who raised a claim for a bond of security that had been part of his mother’s marriage contract.

17427122s.l.: s.n. 1742. Folio pp. 4. Single bifolium stab-holes to gutter. Partially torn along fold edges a little creased and worn slightly soiled. A petition for William Abbot a brewer of Dundee who was falsely accused of robbing the widow of Thomas Bower former Provost of the city. Janet Alison had claimed ‘a Person with a Paper on his Face’ had ‘tied her Hand and Foot and took some Money out of her Repositories while she was in that Condition’ and some months later had spotted William Abbot out of a window and called him ‘the Lown Villain and Thief’. Abbot was found innocent and Alison fined but she did not pay and died shortly afterward. Abbot transferred the charge to her nephew who claimed his aunt was delirious and not responsible for her actions; Abbot here seeks dismissal of that defence and enforcement of the earlier judgement.
