Bonds of provision, though irrevocable, and out of the hands of the granter, if only payable at his death, will fall by the children predeceasing the father, yet where such bonds are absolute, so as statim debeantur, they will not fall by the child's predecease.
And accordingly Thomas Porteous having disponed his estate to his eldest grandchild, Thomas Ainslie, irrevocably, with the burden of L. 1000 to Andtew, his second grandson, the provision to Andrew was sustained, though he predeceased his grandfather.
