Captain Johnston, Provost of Dumfries, against Lennox. The Lords repelled her allegeance, that she had renounced her liferent to her brother, to secure it, because she was in hazard for conventicles, and had possessed seven years since her renunciation; which they found could not give her the benefit of a possessory judgment; and that, her brother having disponed it to the Captain, she had only action against her brother the trustee.
