Legacy being made of a bill of L.40 sterling, whereof the testator afterwards got payment, after his death the money was found in his landlady's hands, who swore that he gave it to her to be applied in payment of the legacies, whereof her own son was to have one. The Lords found the legacy revoked, and that it could not be again constituted by witnesses.
