In a reduction, pursued at Patrick Leith's instance of Whythaugs, against Alexander Gairden of Troup, and others; the probation being closed and renounced, and the clause being ready to be advised:—

The parties being called, It was contended, that the Lords could not proceed to the advising of the cause, because John Lyon of Muiresk, one of the parties called in the process, was dead, and therefore the advising behoved to sist till the process wrere transferred against the apparent heir.
