The Lords advised the action pursued by the Lord Kingston against the Lady Belhaven, (whose daughter he had married,) for her bond of provision of £10,000 Scots, which she had renewed in her servant, Mr William Brown's name, and inserted a power to herself to clog and burden it with what sums she pleased, and so made her assignation to carry these burdens.
The Lords found the Lady could not invert the nature of the bond; and therefore decerned.
