Duplies for Admiral Francis Holburn and the others to the duplies for Captain Robert Haldane and others. This law paper is one of a series regarding the case brought by Haldane, which complained of wrongs said to have been committed at the annual election of Provost, Magistrates and Councillors of the Burgh of Inverkeithing in September (Michaelmas) 1760. Haldane claimed that the use of unlawful force and bribery led to the election of Admiral Holburn and his party. This document was written by David Dalrymple, later Lord Hailes.
