A man granted a bond of provision to his grandchild, for love and favour, payable the first term after his decease. This was argued to be of the nature of a conditional legacy, which could have no effect, the creditor having predeceased the granter. The Lords found the bond fallen by the predecease of the grand child. But a reclaiming petition having been offered, the matter was finished by a transaction. See Appendix.
