Mrs Dallas having undertaken to procure a wife for M'Kaill's son, of a certain description; old Mackaille, the father, granted a missive for money, payable to Dallas's husband. A wife being provided, and young Mackaille being married, action was brought upon the missive; but, upon report of Lord Kaimes, the Lords found, “ That the office undertaken by Dallas was contra bonos mores, and that no action lay upon the missive, and found expenses due.” And to this they adhered on a reclaiming petition.
