Appeal against ecclesiastical court orders for payment to executor of William Murray's estate
Source
This is an appeal document contesting two orders from an ecclesiastical court (dated June 19, 1761 and July 22, 1762) requiring the appellant to pay sums to William Toar as executor of William Murray's will. The appellant argues he owed nothing as an agent for Sir Quayle Summerville and that the executor lacked authority to collect such debts after Murray's death.
