The Lords, in the cause of the Earl of Glencairne and John Brisbane, found, where a man pays the adequate price of land, and, ex gratia et favore, grants to a friend a reversion personal to him, and his heirs of his own body, but nowise to his assignees, that the reversion was not transmissable, and could not be affected, adjudged, nor apprised; and being for personal respects, could neither accresce to the creditors of him to whom it was granted, nor be communicated to them. Vide Dury, 24th March, 1630, Maxwell, and the other quotations there.
