Innergelly having given bonds of provision to his children, whereon infeftment followed after his death, the Lords reduced the bonds upon the same reason urged for Robertson's [creditors against his] bairns, (supra No 83.) the bonds not being notisied by some public deed in the father's time: Though assignations intimate to the debtor would sustain against posterior debts; and here the creditors were anterior, and the father no merchant, but a landed gentleman; and it was not respected for the children, that the father, the time of granting the bond, was no bankrupt, though that is sustained for strangers, supra No 83.
