In a declarator of the Lady Samuelston's escheat, pursued by Sir George Hay;—Alleged by Alexander Walker, a creditor of her's, No declarator; because the gift is taken to the behoof of the rebel, and so must accresce to the creditors. Replied, That ought to be repelled against the general declarator, but ought to be reserved against the special. Duplied, It was competent here, seeing the donator will not seek perhaps a special, being in possession of the rebel's goods. The Lords found the exception relevant.
