William Tarbat having granted bond for £300 to his son James and other children, the said bond was reduced at the instance of a creditor, because it was subscribed only by one notary, being a matter of importance; though it was alleged, that it resolved in three several bonds, and it was equivalent as if the three bonds had been granted for £100 respective; for the Lords considered, that the bond being one and individual, the importance, as to the interest of the debtor, is the same whether it be granted to one or to divers persons.
