A Lady having a liferent provision from her first husband, the same was challenged in a reduction by the first husband's creditors during her second marriage; which produced an agreement in this manner, That the Lady should be restricted to 800 merks, by way of a yearly alimentary annuity, excluding her husband's jus mariti, and that her discharge should be sufficient without her husband. The provision thus settled was found to be alimentary, and not to be attachable for her third husband's debts.
