We decided the question betwixt the Earl and Countess of Caithness. We thought that a husband may ad libitum inhibit his wife, but may not use false and injurious expressions; therefore we repelled the Countess's reasons of reduction of the Earl's inhibition, but remitted to the Ordinary on the Bills to delete any such expressions, (if any such were,) out of the inhibition. (See Dict. No. 235. p. 6025.)
