A very elaborate argument, tending to shew that private burgesses have neither title nor interest to pursue their Magistrates for misapplication of the burgh revenues, is to be found in this case. (No 21. p. 2515, voce Community.) The Court pronounced opposite judgments; but, before a final decision, the suit was compromised.
