An assignation referring to a particular list, in which was an article thus; —‘Item, By the Earl of Roseberry by bond, bills, and others, about L.600;’ and in fact the bonds and bills due to the cedent by Roseberry, together with a decreet against him, amounted very nearly to that sum; yet, in respect, the inventory did not specify the particular bonds, &c. due by Roseberry to the defunct, the Lords found the assignation general, and that it required confirmation; and therefore refused letters of horning or arrestment on it against Roseberry.
