The late Thomas Allan died possessed of considerable funds, out of which he made large provisions in favour of his younger children. For the mutual advantage of all parties, it was agreed that the children should waive their right, as executors, and allow Mr Robert Allan, the eldest son and heir of the said Thomas Allan, to confirm. The company of Robert Allan and Sons, of which the said Robert Allan was a partner, was sequestrated; and Robert Christie was appointed trustee on the estate of the company, and of the said Robert Allan and Alexander Wight, as partners thereof, and as individuals.
With a view to prevent the funds which had fallen under the administration of the said Robert Allan, as executor foresaid, from forming a part of the sequestrated estate, a multiplepoinding was raised in the name of the said Robert Allan against his father's creditors.
For the Trustee, Wood. Alt. Dean of Fac. (Hope,) Anderson, W. Bell. John Wight, W.S. Smith ' Kinnear, W. S. Agents. S. Clerk.
