The Lords found the dilatory defence, proponed against his title, that he had not used requisition forty days before the term, conform to the tenor of his wadset, was no acknowledgment of the passive titles; and that he might insist on that No process, and yet deny the passive titles: and that his summons, being only for payment, it could not sustain till first he used requisition; but, if it had borne a conclusion to transfer the contract of wadset against Ludquhairn passivè, then they would have granted decreet in these terms without requisition.
