The purchaser of an estate, upon which there was an infeftment of annual rent, having made payment of the same to an heir who had only a general service, and had not established the infeftment in his person; this was not found to be bona fide payment, because he might have seen the infeftment in the register, and ought to have known the defect of the creditor's title.

Fol. Dic. v. 1. p. 113.
