In the suspension and reduction, Balmanno and Chapman against Littlejohne, it was farther opponed to the reason, That the woman, deceased before her husband, behoved yet to have an heirship; since, by her contract of marriage, the most part of her moveables were excepted, by express agreement, out of the communion of goods betwixt man and wife, quæ jurisconsultis et humanitatis studiosis dieuntur bona receptitia. For clearing thereof, the Lords would have the contract of marriage to be produced.
