In an action betwixt John Somerville and Alexander Somerville, the Lords found, that albeit both their rights proceeded ab eodem auctore, yet seeing John Somerville's tenant was not obliged in a servitude to the other pertaining to Alexander Somerville, that he might lawfully bigg ad cœlum usque. Item, It was found, that albeit John Somervilie bigged after the Dean of Guild's discharge, that he should not be obliged to demolish, seeing it was now tried quo jure edificavit.
