In the reduction of a contract, whereby the pursuer, a very weak and facile man, was enormly lesed, the Lords refused to sustain the reduction, because there were no such qualifications of weakness in the pursuer proved as to disable him to contract, nor no fraud nor circumvention proved on the part of the defender. See Appendix.

Fol. Dic. v. 1. p. 336.
