Found, that an obligement to provide a wife to a third, in liferent, of lands and heritages to be conquest during the marriage, did comprehend a sum belonging to the heir, by a clause secluding executors, as falling under the word heritage. Upon a representation, that clauses of conquest are to be strictly interpreted; and, therefore, by heritages in this case, heritages by infeftment are to be understood; the interlocutor was stopped: but it was thereafter adhered to.

 Fol. Dic. v. 1. p. 197. Harcarse, (Contract of Marriage) No 343. p. 83.
