Faichney pursued a reduction capite lecti of a disposition of heritage made by Mr Faichney, minister of Collace, within thirty days of his death. It was proved, that the disponer had been in a declining state of health, with some sympoms of palsy, before executing the deed, and that this disease terminated
in death; but he enjoyed all his faculties, transacted his ordinary business, and went both to kirk and market, as he expressed himself, ‘in order to confirm his will.’ The Court sustained the reasons of reduction. See Appendix.
