There was a reduction, pursued by the Lord Pitsligo against Alexander Davidson, of a retour, whereby Alexander was served general heir to William Forbes of Pitsligo, the pursuer's grand-uncle, upon this reason, that the defender was bastard, his father and mother never having been lawfully married together.
