Tutors entered into a contract of sale of a pupil's lands at a certain price, (without authority from the Court) agreeing that the purchaser might purchase in the pupil's debts, but that he should communicate the eases to the pupil after his majority, on his ratifying the disposition. The heir of this pupil quarrelled the sale, and reduced it, not for lesion, but for want of authority. Then the pupil claimed benefit of the eases,—but the Lords found he could not claim the eases, and quarrel the bargain, 3d July; and this day adhered.
