Where James Trotter, as assignee, by Andrew Ker, to a sum of money consigned; it was alleged for the said Andrew his elder brother, That he had right from his father to that sum and wadset, by virtue of his contract of marriage. To the which the said Andrew did answer, That their father did make a posterior right thereof to him, obliging his heirs to make it good. The Lords would have the children to debate the cause between them, and that the Laird of Fairningtoune should take up the money in the meantime, out of the clerk's hands, upon bond in the meantime, for principal, [and] annual, while he got a sufficient renunciation from the heir for purging his land habili modo.
