adjudged ; and that is a verdict of a gwlad after defence. [1]When a dispute shall be commenced concerning the meering of lands or trevs; if it be commenced between the land of the court and the land of the gwlad, the court is to meer. If between the land of the gwlad and church land, the church is to meer. If between co-inheritors, status is to meer. If between occupied land and a waste, prior conservancy is to meer. Building and tillage denote occupation. [2]When a court meers, it is for the maer and canghellor to define the meers on its behalf; if a church, crozier and gospel.
[3]Whoever wills to move a claim concerning land by kin and descent, let him move it on one of the two ninth days, either the ninth day of December or the ninth day of May ; for if such a claim as that be moved outside one of those days, it will not succeed. [4]Whoever shall claim land on the ninth day of December, shall have judgment respecting it before the ninth of May ; and if he do not then have judgment, let him claim on the ninth day of the succeeding May if he will to continue law ; and afterwards law is open for him when the king shall will.
