The Lords sustained the objection to the Duke of Roxburgh sasine, that the pages were not numbered in the notary's attestation, and therefore found no title to carry on the process of declarator of astriction, 4th June.
In this important question, decided 4th June, concerning the nullity of a sasine written bookwise, that the attestation did not number the pages, we examined the keeper of the register and several writers to the signet. The disuse appeared so universal that we repelled the nullity, but resolved to make an act of sederunt.
