A general discharge, by the Earl of Wintoun to Dr Livingstoun, of his intromissions as factor or chamberlain for several years, taken off by qualifications that it was given in trust to facilitate his marriage; upon which head, bonds for 10,000 merks were also found to be granted in trust. Here the presumptions of trust were violent: for, after the date of the discharge, the Doctor had subjected himself to compt before my Lord Wintoun's auditors, had still all the instructions, and died medio tempore at sea.
