Court presentments for non-appearance before Deemsters, February 1766

Source
3rd February 1766

A series of court presentments from February 1766 documenting cases where individuals failed to appear before various Deemsters (judges) in response to charges brought by plaintiffs. Multiple sheadings are represented including Garff, Maughold, Rushon, Ayre, and Bride. Each entry records the presenting official, the charged individual, the Deemster, and the plaintiff, with the notation that the defendant did not appear and therefore stands in mercy of a fine.
