The Lord Coupar having, after contracting of debt, granted an additional provision to his Lady stante matrimonio, who was opulently provided before; and having afterwards contracted more debt, the anterior creditors questioned the provision on the act of Parliament 1621; and the posterior creditor alleged it was indirectly revoked by the posterior contracting of debt.
Answered; My Lord had a sufficient estate to pay all his debt, and so the provision could neither be quarrelled on the act 1621, nor could it be presumed revoked.
The Lords found the answer relevant. See No 5. p. 11337.
Fol. Dic. v. 2. p. 133. Harcarse, (Stante Matrimonio.) No 868. p. 246.
