Burgh Royal – The Court of Session having found that the butchers of Edinburgh should be restrained from rinding tallow for sale, and that the magistrates could oblige them to sell their tallow at a certain price to the candle makers, which was in terms of a bye-law of the magistrates, ratified by a private act of parliament the judgment is reversed. This act was not sufficient to restrain the butchers from melting or rinding their tallow.
