Stirling of Ardoch having granted bond of 2000 merks to the Lady Glenurchie; Ednample, as her heir and executor, assigns the same to Rickartoun; who thereupon pursues Ardoch for payment; who alleged, No process; because, this bond being heritable, there is no retour produced, serving Ednample heir to his mother; but only a special service, serving him heir to her in another annualrent, which contained no general service.
It was answered, That the annualrent being to heirs whatsoever, the special retour, in that annualrent, imported a general service.
Which the Lords sustained.
