This point, however, the petitioner humbly begs leave to contest, and he has some confidence that he Will be able fully to convince your lord-v ships that there is not the smallest ground or pre tence in this case for a possessory judgment; and he hopes that his aigument upon this head will meet with the more attention, and that in immer papers, the claim of possession, being considered as totally untenable upon the facts, was but slightly argued.

Excerpt from Memoirs of Charles Lee Lewes, Vol. 4 of 4: Containing Anecdotes, Historical and Biographical, of the English and Scottish Stages, During a Period of Forty Years

By the interlocutor thus pronounced, the creditors of Mr. Jackson, and through them Mrs. Esten, who has authority from the Duke of Hamilton, one of the patentees of the Edinburgh theatre, has obtained by summary process an interdict against the petitioner, who has an equal authority from the other patentee Mr. Dundas, prohibiting and discharging him in the mean time, and before the rights of the parties be fully discussed, from presenting entertainments of the stage to the public, while Mrs. Esten herself is left at full liberty to do so.
