An heretrix of lands takes new infeftment to her husband and self in liferent, and to the bairns of the marriage, without saying in fee; and which failyieing, the one half to the husband's heirs, and the other half to the wife's heirs; Quæritur, there being a son of the marriage, if he be heir of the whole lands? I think he is, because it was only error et omissio scriptoris. There is minus dictum, et plus cogitatum menteque retentum.

Advocates' MS. No. 537, § 4, folio 274.
