A second disposition of the same subject to a conjunct and confident person, first completed by infeftment, bearing onerous causes in general, proves not its narrative against the first disponee; and a bond for a large sum of money of the same date with the disposition, but not referring to it, found no instruction of the onerous cause; for both, probably, were meant as donations; and if the first disponee was preferable, the second disponee could have it in his power to prefer himself ex post facto, by giving a valuable consideration, which he would do by discharging the bond.
