A Firlot of Scotch field beans, one year old, weighed 69 pounds, 4 ounces,

Scotch pease and beans run from 68 to 72 pounds in the Firlot. Pease and beans
brought up the Clyde are sold by weight, 70 lbs. being given for a Firlot. At Port
Dundas, and other places of the district, they are sold by the Firlot.

A Peck of Riga linseed weighed 19 pounds, 12 ounces, and 6 drams. Linseed

Guild." Act 24. Geo. n. cap. 51.

In some counties in Scotland, the chain consists of 74 feet and a fractional part,
but as the Court of Session has determined, that the standard chain is 74 feet net,
