In an action of removing pursued by Janet Kell against Alexander Morison, and Janet Thomson his spouse, the Lords found the said Janet's sasine null, because it was given by her husband, propriis manibus, without a warrant, notwithstanding it was alleged, That the said sasine was given to her tanquam spousæ futuræ et sic intuitu matrimonii, and that she had been in possession of a great part of the lands contained in the sasine, except the lands thairfrae.—See No 385.
