A man having named in his testament nine trustees, by whom a sum of money was to be uplifted and applied for certain uses, for the poor, &c. it was objected that the testament was null, because it was written only by two of the trustees, as this might give room to frauds; and the case of trustees in whose person the right to the subject is lodged, is different from the case of a legatary in common law. The Lords found the writ sufficiently tested. See Appendix.
