A Disposition to an heir of provision, (the eldest son of a second marriage, who by the granter's contract of marriage was to succeed to the lands,) with a reserved power to the father to alter or burden, is not reducible on the act 1621; and therefore a liferent infeftment given by that son to his wife preferred to the father's creditors.
