The said Catharine, only child of a second marriage, being provided to eight thousand merks of portion, at her age of 14 years, but no obligement of aliment or annualrent till then, pursues her brother, as heir to her father's estate, being of a good condition, for aliment.—He alleges he was obliged for none, not being parent, nor his father obliged by contract or bond for it.
The Lords found an aliment due, for the pursuer's mother was not alive, and able to aliment her.
