He that is apparent heir to a minor, albeit he be his tutor testamentar, will not get him delivered to his keeping, albeit he be apparent heir only in a part of the lands. And in case that same tutor be donatar to the minor's ward and marriage, he will not get the minor delivered to his keeping, in respect of the superior, ne inducat votum captandæ mortis alienæ.
