One Anderson disponed his estate to his son William, reserving power to burden him with 4000 merks for a portion to his son Alexander, payable after his own death or Alexander's marriage, which should first happen. Alexander married in 1728, the father in 1730 granted a bond for 4000 merks to his son Alexander, payable at his own death, with annualrent thereafter, but reserving power to alter; and in 1737 he did alter, and granted a new bond, bearing annualrent from 1728; but the Lords found, that the father could not burden his son William with annualrents, retro before the date of the bond. (See Dict. No. 23. p. 4132.)
