A man settling his effects upon his eldest son, an infant, did, in the same deed, appoint his wife and six other persons to be his son's tutors and curators, “the major part of the fore-named persons accepting, and being in life, to be a quorum, his said spouse being always one and sine qua non, and intrusted with the person of his said son during his minority, with power to her allenarly to nominate a factor, who shall have the sole intromission. The whole tutors, save the wife, refused to accept. Upon which head it was found, That the said nomination of the tutors was void, and that there was access for the service of a tutor of law.
