A debtor of a minor in an heritable sum wanting to pay the money, premonished him, and offered a bill of suspension and to consign. The minor was willing to take the money and re-employ it, (the sum was L.1000) but then his administrator-in law was abroad and could not coneur in discharging the former security, though they had found another debtor to take it. The Lords would not appoint a curator ad hunc effectum, but thought they could themselves authorize the minor to discharge, but before they would do so, they remitted to the Ordinary to enquire into the sufficiency of the new security offered, and to report.
