In this case the Lords unanimously found, that a prorogation of a tack, upon which no possession had followed, the old tack not being expired, is not a real right, and, consequently, not valid against a singular successor. It was offered to be proved in this case, that the purchaser knew of this prorogation: but the Lords did not listen to that.
