Every legal objection to the infeftment is fatal to the enrolment. The instrument of sasine upon a disposition of three several subjects, bearing delivery of infeftment of two of them only, omitting the third, the disponees were ordered to be struck off the roll, though the claim of ‘acta erant hæc,’ &c. specified the whole subjects; from whence it was presumeable, that infeftment had actually been taken upon all the three, and that the defect arose merely from an omission in extending the instrument.
