The Lords were of opinion, that a tutor could not warrantably make a sum that was heritable before his tutory, moveable, ad hunc effectum, to empower his pupil to testate thereon, in prejudice of his heir; but they did not think but a tutor might have rendered heritable a sum that was moveable before his office, though thereby the pupil would have been incapable to testate thereon.

 Harcarse, No. 14. p. 296.
