One Shed having inserted his creditor Sir Patrick Nisbet's name in a blank bond due by one Scot, without taking a back-bond,—some years after, Sir Patrick pursued Shed. Alleged for the defender, That an assignation granted by a debtor, not bearing expressly in satisfaction, is presumed a corroborative security; but, when a creditor takes right to a bond, by getting his name inserted, that presumes satisfaction, unless the contrary be made appear. Which allegeance the Lords found relevant: but this is not sine suo scrupulo, Shed not having retired his bond.
