Found that a wife may, in liege poustie, without an onerous cause, dispone to her husband, or his son, stante matrimonio, any interest she would have in her husband's goods by her death, and that such a right needed not to be confirmed, though it was omnium bonorum, and not intimated, seeing it could not properly be intimated; and the making mention of it in the son's contract of marriage, took off the suspicion of latency. Vide No. 473, [Procurator-Fiscal of Peebles against the Laird of Fairingtoun, February 1687.]
