for Life, remainder in Tail (after the Scotch Form) to
his Lordship. Lord Glenlyon was not Infefted on this
Contract (as it seems was necessary) and although a Deed
of Entail (a copy of which accompanies these Papers) was
made pursuant to the Articles yet it omits all mention
of the Annuity. did the Effect of this mistake depend
upon the English Law either it would be rectified in
consequence of the express reference in the Deed to the
Articles or else the Duke as Tenant for Life in possession
might grant and confirm the Annuity as a Charge. The
Point is however to be settled by the Scotch Law, and M^r
Murray whose opinion upon it is before me recommends
both that an Infeftment shall still take place under
the Marriage Contract, and also that the Duke shall
Grant and confirm the Annuity under the Deed of
Entail. –

It is intended to extend the Charge of 1000 p^r
Annum after the Duke's decease over Lord Glenlyon's
Interest in the Entailed Estate for his life as a further
Security to the Grantee. This M^r Murray in his answer
to the 2^d Quere of the Case proposes shall be effected by
means of an Heritable Bond for the Annuity with a
Conveyance of the Estate for securing it and concludes by
Recommending all the Instruments which respect the
Perth Estates to be prepared by a Scotch Conveyancer.
Leaving these to be thus disposed of the necessary
English Instruments for effecting the proposed Grant and
Security will be – First. – A Bond from Lord Glenlyon –
Conditioned for payment of the intended Annuity – And
next an Assignment to the Grantee of the intended Annuity
