A man, in his contract of marriage, being obliged “to provide his conquest to himself and wife in conjunct-fee and liferent, and to the heirs of the marriage; which failing, the one half to his heirs, and the other half to her heirs;” and there being a considerable conquest, but no bairns of the marriage; the Lords found a provision of the said conquest in favour of the children of a second marriage, was a rational and effectual deed, and therefore sustained the same against the wife's heirs.
