It is alleged by the Lady, That albeit she be tutrix for her son, yet the office astricts her not to pay out sums of money for her pupil, except the pursuer will prove that she, as tutrix, has intromitted, or might intromit with as much of the minor's gear as will pay the debt. Which exception the Lords found relevant.
