In an action for delivery of one Isobel M'Kenzie, pursued by Mr. John M'Kenzie, as tutor dative, the Lords ordained the bairn to be delivered to the pursuer; notwithstanding it was alleged, that the defender was goodsir and tutor dative by a prior gift, and that he was alioqui successurus; and yet the Lords ordained the bairn to be exhibited after her age of 12 years as a free person, under the pain of £.1000.
