Subject_3Power to Grant Leases.
Facts:

An application by a tutor to a pupil for authority to grant leases of extraordinary duration, ordered to be intimated to the next heir of entail resident in this country.

Headnote:

The petitioner, Robert Dalrymple Steuart Grosett Muirhead, as tutor and administrator-at-law of Miss Grosett Muirhead, heiress of entail in possession of the estate of Bredisholm, applied for authority to grant certain leases the period of endurance of which extends beyond the time when his tutory will cease. The petition prayed for intimation on the walls and in the minute-book only; and it was stated that this course had been followed in the case of Morison, 19th July 1861 ( 23 D. 1313), but the Court in this case appointed intimation to be made also to the next heir of entail resident in this country.

Counsel:

Counsel for Petitioner— Mr Broun. Agent— Mr Sprot, W.S.
