The point betwixt James M'Bride and Andrew Bryson being reported, the Lords found the declaration under Mr Andrew Bryson's hand a writ valid and probative, and a sufficient exercise of the faculty he had reserved to himself, in his disposition to the said Andrew, of altering and annulling it; and that the said revocation needed no delivery, being in favours of his nearest heirs of line, his sisters, who were alioqui successuræ. Only, in respect it wanted writer's name and witnesses, they assigned to the pursuer a day to prove it to be holograph. Vide 6th January 1681, Hepburn.
