Found, that a minor, who had submitted with consent of his curators, in a case, which of its nature was pretty much involved in fact, utebatur jure communi, and could not be heard to quarrel the decreet arbitral upon iniquity; and in the reasoning, taken for granted, that he might with their consent have transacted.
It might be very prejudicial to minors, if in such cases especially as are proper subjects of transaction, yet they could not terminate them by submission
or transaction; yet, if an enorm lesion should appear, it is not doubted but the minor would be reponed. *** Clerk Home's report of this case is No 68. p. 665. voce Arbitration.
