This was a question of death-bed—and turned upon, Whether a woman whose deed is quarrelled was fiar, or only liferenter with a substitution to her heirs and a faculty to her to dispone? The conception of the three deeds was very singular, and I keep the papers partly for that reason. Arniston had found that the woman was not fiar, but the *adhere mullum renitente President, but without a vote.
