By contract betwixt Bedlormy as pretending to be nearest, at least near of kin, to a defunct, and several persons claiming also to be nearest of kin, he for a sum to be paid by such of them as should be found to be nearest of kin, renounced his own claim to the succession; but one of these had not signed: The Lords therefore thought Bedlormy not bound, and as a consequence thereof, found the other nearest of kin who had signed had locus pænitentiæ.
