The Lords granted to Black the pursuer letters recommendatory to the Parliament of Bourdeaux to certify what is the law of France as to certain points on which the decision of a cause in this Court depends, and recommended to Arniston and me to search precedents as to the form of such letters. The clerks shewed us one late precedent betwixt 1720 and 1730, where the clerk wrote the letter by authority of the Court, and had the seal of Court appended; but that form seemed incongruous.
