Mrs Isobel Ellis, Lady Invergelly, gives in a petition, craving the custody and delivery of her only son from Robert Lumisden of Invergelly, his father, in respect of his tenderness, and that she could attend his health better than any other, and that his education at schools and colleges was neglected, and that she was willing to maintain him out of her own aliment, during her separation. The Lords, considering he was a youth come to age, and in familia, thought the father had the only right to keep and educate him; and therefore refused her bill.
