An assignment of a bond, (both being executed in England and in the English form) intimated by letter only, is preferable to a posterior arrestment.
The judgment, finding that the law of Scotland should regulate this case, is reversed.
The Court having refused to allow holograph letters to be equivalent to an intimation – judgment also reversed.
