Alexander Allan pursues Mr John Colzier to pay a sum of L. 92 pounds, addebted for the defender's mother, and that upon the defender's missive letter, by which he obliged him to pay the same.
The defender answered, Absolvitor; because, by the missive produced, he offered him to become the pursuer's debtor for the sum due by his mother, being about L. 92; but, by a postscript, requires the pursuer to intimate to him, or his friends at Falkland, whether he accepted or not, which he did not then till after the defender's mother's death, and so it being a conditional offer, not accepted, is not binding.
