In this case of Alexander and Thomas Coull, found, that where one is in possession of lands, though by a right thereafter reduced, yet that the possessor is not liable for the mails and duties but from the decreet of reduction, and not from the time of the citation: though the decreet bear the right to have been from the beginning, and in all time coming null; which is only stilus curiæ.
