[Kilk. No. 6, Heritable and Moveable.]
In this case it was the opinion of my Lord President and some others of the Lords, that a charge upon an heritable bond conceived after the new fashion, did not make the debt moveable so as to go to executors; and the reason of the difference betwixt the old and the new heritable bonds is, that a charge upon an old infeftment of annualrent did resolve the heritable right pro tempore, till it was passed from, because a man could not have both the annualrent-right and the price of it; but it is otherwise in the modern heritable bonds, which being only a security for money, not a purchase of annualrent-right, a charge upon them does not alter their nature. But the other Lords put their opinion in this case upon specialties.
