In the action pursued by Alexander Elphingstoune against my Lord Elphingstoune, the Lords sustained the same, upon a missive that was holograph, all written with Mr James Elphingstoune of Barnes, his father's, hand to Gorden of Killoche, the said Alexander his mother's brother; both for stock and brock, as the said letters bear, because the holograph was proven. Neither did they respect the registrate bonds five or six years before, and produced in the process, because of the clause in the foresaid letter, which was long posterior; but they ordained the said Alexander to make cession thereof in favours of the said Lord.
