Lords MEDWYN and CocRISOKN concurred. Lord Mormatirr dissented, on the ground that the very point here in question had been decided in favour of Lord Hitinaird's plea in the case of Dr. Lamont v. the ileritors of IJrr, June 7, 1797, Morr. 16, 706.

These would-be-miracle-mongers strictly forbade the attendance of any medical person, and trusted for her recovery to prayer alone, with "holy" anointing, which was duly performed both previous to and after death. Seeing their endeavours to preserve life to be unavailing, these sage doctors gave the friends of the party so operated upon the very mortify iug information, that the deceased had too little faith, else her recovery would have been certain. A precognition of the whole affair, we hear, is about to be
