One Rocheid in the Merse being pursued by his daughter, to grant her a yearly aliment; to which he was unwilling, because he doubted of'her legitimacy; (for he was divorced from her mother, for her notour adultery:)
The Lords found him liable to aliment her; but, in regard he offered to take her home to his own house, assoilyied him from any modified aliment; and ordained her to go home, and stay with him; and would not astrict him to entertain her elsewhere, unless he had beat her usually.
