Found that tutors or curators are obliged to employ moveable debts, or annual-rents of sums, or bonds uplifted by them during their office, upon annual-rent, within a year after their uplifting of the same, and that, e contra, they ought to have allowance for what they expend in alimenting the pupil, or in paying of his debts or annual rents; 2do, Found that a tutor, at the expiring of his office, is obliged to stock the whole unuplifted annual-rents due before, conform to ancient practique; but that curators, after expiring of the curatory, are not obliged to stock unuplifted annual-rents, they being liable for the responsableness of the debtors, or for diligence; 3tio, Found, that where tutor or curator are debtors to their minor, they are to be countable for the annual-rent due by themselves, as for annual-rent actually uplifted from other debtors; and the Lords declared they would so determine in time coming.
