There were two questions whether adhere or alter? The Lords found that the whole 6000 merks cannot be charged solely on the estate the son made a title to, and therefore altered: But the next question was, Whether the father's whole estate should be brought in computo; or only the lands in the heritable bond, viz. Meggiesholm. I was of this last opinion and some others, but the first carried upon the vote, 3d February 1736. 25th February, The Lords adhered by the President's casting vote.
