And whereas, various questions have arisen in Actions and Suits founded on simple contract as to the proof and effect of Acknowledgments and Promises offered in Evidence for the purpose of taking Cases out of the operation of the said Enactment, and it is expedient to prevent such questions, and to make provision for giving effect to the said enactment, and to the intention thereof; SON wheesh as, ayns shuityn-leigh mychione coardail cadjin, ta ymmoddee arganeyn er n’irree myr bentyn da’n prowal as foandid jeh goaill-rish as gialdynyn jeant er-chee dy ghoaill cooishyn ass roshtyn yn Slattys dy Limitation va jeant ayns y vlein 1738, as te ymmyrchagh dy haghney lheid ny shuityn as arganeyn.

Provided also, that in Actions to be commenced against two or more joint Contractors, or Executors, or Administrators, if it shall appear at the trial or otherwise that the Plaintiff, though barred by the said recited Act as to one or more of such joint Contractors, or Executors, or Administrators, shall nevertheless be entitled to recover against any other or others of the Defendants by virtue of a new Acknowledgment or Promise or otherwise, Judgment may be given and Costs allowed for the Plaintiff as to such Defendant or Defendants against whom he shall recover, and for the other Defendant or Defendants against the Plaintiff.
