Three heirs-portioners intending to roup their lands amongst them three, the youngest made a private bargain with the second to become purchaser, and to give her a definite price whatever they should sell for at the roup. Thereafter articles of roup were extended and signed, and the youngest became purchaser at a higher price, and then the second insisted for her full third of the price, and alleged that there was locus pænitentiæ, being a bargain concerning lands, and the articles of roup being posterior to it: But the Lords found unanimously that there was no locus pænitentiæ (See Dict, No. 42. p. 8439.)
