I call to mind that in the month of July 1671, the Lords found, in a case of Mr. Robert Pitillo's, that the cedent's oath might be taken in prejudice of the assignee, where it was confessed that the assignation was without onerous causes; though before, it was counted a brocard, that the cedent could not swear in prejudice of the assignee, unless the assignee first had confessed the assignation to have been to the cedent's behoof.
