In David Ferne's cause against Wilson of Croglen, the Lords found the father liable to pay the debt contained in his umquhile son's bond,—the creditor proving that the cause of the bond was for aliment, and that the son staid at his house; and again found it relevant to assoilyie the father, secundum S. C. Macedoniunum, that he offered to prove that he gave his son at that time a competent allowance, upon which he might have lived, or paid for his own aliment. Vide 24 th November 1682, Alston.
