Act for MacDonald of Sleat and others

Concerning the petition given in to the lords of their majesties’ privy council by Sir Donald MacDonald of Sleat, John MacLeod of Dunvegan, Lachlan MacKinnon of Strath and Alexander MacLeod of Raasay, showing that whereas the estates of parliament, having imposed the sum of 14 s. Scots for every hearth within the kingdom to have been paid at the term of Candlemas 1691 by the inhabitants dwelling in the said houses where the said hearths are, and having by an other act of the same date empowered the said lords of privy council to give such orders for collecting and ingathering of the said hearth money as the said lords should think fit, in prosecution whereof their lordships have ordained the heritors of each parish to give in lists to Mr James Melville of Cassingray, collector of all the said hearth money, his subcollectors and deputes, of all hearths within their bounds, and likewise ordained all persons liable in payment of the said hearth money To make payment of the same to the said Mr James Melville and his subcollectors before 10 May 1691, with certification that letters of horning and poinding should be directed at the instance of the said collector general, his subcollectors and deputes or they should be allowed to quarter upon the said deficients not exceeding one soldier for each three hearths, which proclamation and certifications therein contained, the troubles that were then in the country did hinder from coming to the petitioners’ knowledge and did render it impossible for them in these circumstances to give obedience thereto, notwithstanding whereof the subcollectors of the said hearth money within the shire of Inverness without any previous intimation given to the petitioner for giving in the said lists has directed a party to quarter upon the petitioners and their tenants therefor, whereby the petitioners and their tenants would be extremely damnified before they can get lists of the hearths taken up, being at several places and at great distance one from each other, and having hade no intimation to make these lists but from the party that came to quarter therefor. And if their lordships doe not allow some competent time to the petitioners to give in the said lists and to make payment according thereto, the petitioners’ tenants will be utterly impoverished by these extraordinary quarterings, especially seeing the foresaid party also quarters for about 25 months’ cess, and besides the quartering money due therefor does exact distinct quartering money for the said hearth money, and not content with single diet which is only due to them in law and was offered by the petitioners, they exact 4 s. per day for each footman from several deficients at once from the time the quartering was ordered, whereby the petitioners’ tenants being exhausted of money are rendered incapable to make punctual payment of the said hearth money. And therefore craving that the said lords would be pleased to take the premises to their serious consideration and allow some competent time to the petitioners to give in to the collectors the said lists of the hearths within their bounds and make payment accordingly and in the mean time to be elapsed, and to ordain that whatever sums have been already exacted by the said quarterings beyond 4 s. for each footman, or his diet may be accepted of and allowed by the collector in part payment of the said public dues as being illegally exacted, as the said petition bears. The said lords of their majesties’ privy council, having considered this petition given in to them by the said Sir Donald MacDonald of Sleat and others, they allow to the petitioners the first day of January next for giving in to the collector of the lists of the hearths within their bounds and making payment of the hearth money, and they discharge any quartering to be used for the said lists or hearth money until the said day and if any parties are already quartered upon that account, they appoint the same instantly to be removed, and they allow the above collectors to see and answer this petition as to that part thereof concerning the illegal exactions or quarterings before the first council day of November next to come.
