A Person having granted a bill, on death-bed, for L. 350, to his brother, which, by the brother's declaration, was gratuitous as to L. 300 of it; the Lords, at the instance of the children, reduced the bill, in so far as it was gratuitous; and found, that a legacy could not be validly constituted by a bill on death-bed.
