The purchaser of an estate, upon which there was an infeftment of annual rent, having made payment of the same to an heir who had only a general service, and had not established the infeftment in his person; this was not found to be bona fide payment, because he might have seen the infeftment in the register, and ought to have known the defect of the creditor's title.
