In the action of registration, Spence against Dowglas, where the execution of the summons was offered to be improven by way of exception, no other being
proponed,—the Lords repelled the same, reserving action of improbation, as accords of the law. Which seems to have been proponed for preferring of some other creditor, such an exception not being usual; or because the husband, called for his interest, desired to prolong the process, that, if his wife should die medio tempore, he should not be constituted debtor.
