Application being made to the Lords by a bill given in by a widow, desiring that she may be allowed to intromit with the crop and goods pertaining to the defunct, without hazard of vicious intromission,

The Lords thought that such warrants being voluntariæ jurisdictionis, and the Commissaries being entrusted for securing the estate of defunct persons to the nearest of kin, and creditors, and other persons having interest; did remit the petitioner to the Commissaries of the place. Sir David Falconer younger was for the petitioner and subscribed the bill.
