In a submission to three persons, that when they found the father was in need, then the sons should pay him such a sum, two of the friends emit their declaration without the third. Alleged, By law it was null, seeing the reference was to all the three, and though two made the plurality, yet it was presumed, if the third had been present he might, by his reasoning, have altered the sentiments of the other two. Yet the Lords in re tam favorabili found the determination sufficiently binding.
