Morison pursued Drysdale for a division, on Act 1695, anent run-rig. Morison's property lay in two small parcels, cut by Drysdale's property, which surrounded the westmost parcel, and divided it from the east; but then Drysdale's property lay all contiguous, in the form of a crescent, surrounding Morison's eastmost parcel, and dividing it from the west. Morison's two parcels were small;—the westmost about acres, the eastmost about, intersected by part of Drysdale's property, about acres. The Sheriff found that the statute did not apply, the lands did not lie run-rig; Drysdale's property lay contiguous, not cut by Morison's, but having Morison's in its bosom. The Lord Westhall, Ordinary, in an advocation, remitted the cause simpliciter: and the Lords adhered.
