In a pursuit raised by Patrick Nicoll against George Seattoun of Minnes for payment of a debt, as representing his father, on one or other of the passive titles; and being insisted against, upon that title of behaviour as heir, by intromitting with the maills and duties of lands, whereof a condescendence was to be given in by the pursuer; the Act being extracted blank, and the condescendence not proven till after the second calling of the Act,—the Lords, in respect thereof, would not circumduce the term against the defender; but gave him a long term, viz. to the 1st of July thereafter, to complete his diligence for proving that his father was denuded of the lands, with the maills and duties thereof, [with which] it was alleged the defender had intromitted.
