Fraser of Techmure's mother comprised certain lands pertaining to the Laird of Philorth, and, before the comprising is allowed by the Lords, she deceases. Techmure serves himself heir to his mother, and gives in a bill, desiring the Lords to allow the comprising, that he might get letters to charge the superior to receive him as heir to his mother. The Lords grant the desire of the bill, although some thought it was requisite he should have sought first a decreet of transferring of the comprising, in his person, as heir, and, to that effect, to have summoned the Laird of Philorth.
