Found that the first infeftment upon an apprising, or the first exact diligence for obtaining the same, makes, by Act of Parliament, the first effectual apprising; and that a posterior infeftment, upon a prior apprising, cannot be drawn back in prejudice thereof; but that a bare charge against the superior is not the exact diligence the act requires, unless a charter and composition be also offered to him. In this cause an apprising was found simply null upon this ground, That a part of the sums apprised for, had been paid to the appriser himself. Vide No. 283, [Wright against Earl of Annandale, January 1683;] and No. 290, [Baillie of Torwoodhead against Gairner and his Son, March 1683.]
