§ DR. FARQUHARSON (Aberdeenshire, W.)I beg to ask the Lord Advocate whether a minister of the Established Church in Scotland can sit on the Parochial Board in virtue of proprietary rights in connection with his manse?
§ * THE LORD ADVOCATE (Mr. J. B. BALFOUR,) Clackmannan, &c.The answer to the question depends upon whether the term "heritor," as used in the Poor Law Act of 1845, includes a minister, and it rather appears to me that it does not.
