Interlocutors affirmed with costs. The question was one of feudal conveyancing, involving the tracing and identification of parcels; so extremely technical and special, that even in Scotland it was deemed unworthy of a report; Mr. Young having omitted it on the express ground that it was “too complicated and circumstantial to be useful to the profession.” (Page 163 of the Respondent's printed case.)
