The Viscount being charged upon his bond, to make payment of 700 and odd merks, did Suspend, upon this reason;—That the bond was qualified,—viz. That he was only obliged to give surety for payment thereof out of the money due by him to his father, who was principally bound to the charger; whereas it could not be instructed that he was debtor to his father; but, on the contrary, he produced the contract of wadset, whereby it appeared that he had lent a greater sum to his father nor the said wadset.
The Lords, notwithstanding, found the letters orderly proceeded; and found it sufficient that the Viscount had given bond, acknowledging that he was debtor to his father, and found necessarv to prove the same by his oath.
