Mr Frederick Carmichael pursues the Laird of Kincraig, as lawfully charged to enter heir, to hear and see his goodsir's bond registered. The apparent heir produces a renunciation, subscribed by him and his tutor, which the pursuer is content to accept, that he might proceed to his adjudication. Compears some others of Kincraig's creditors, and, being admitted for their interests, alleged, That the renunciation could not be received, because the act of curatory was not produced; and that though Mr Frederick would be content to accept the same upon his own peril, that he might not do it to their prejudice, and thereby prevent them, who were con-creditors, by his prior diligence. The Lords repelled the allegeance.
