Whereasan Act was passed by the Parliament of Scotland in the year sixteen hundred and eighty-one, intituled “An Act concerning the registration of seisins and reversions within burgh:” And whereas in the registration of instruments of seisin of tenements within burghs royal, or liberties or freedoms thereof, holden in burgage, as authorized and required by the said Act of Parliament, some diversities of practice have prevailed in the mode of recording the notorial docquets subjoined to such instruments, as to which no rule was prescribed by the said Act: And whereas doubts have arisen regarding the effects of such practice, and it is expedient that such doubts should be removed, and that the mode of such registration should for the future be settled and prescribed:
With regard to any instruments of seisin of tenements within burgh, recorded prior to the passing of this Act, in which the docquets thereto subjoined may have been inserted in such registers in an abbreviated or incomplete form, or altogether omitted, as heretofore in various instances practised, such practice shall not be held to affect the sufficiency of such instruments, or be the ground of any challenge in law or exception to the validity of the rights of parties depending on such seisins.
