The Lords found, that a superior of entailed lands was obliged to enter the heir of entail, who in this case was likewise the heir of the former investiture and lineal successes in the lands, on receiving a duplicando of the feu-duty, and was not entitled to demand from him a year's rent or other composition; reserving to the superior, and his successors in the superiority, any right which they may have to a year's rent or other composition the entry of any future heir of tailzie, not an heir of investiture prior to the tailzie.
