John Gordon pursued Dugald Gilchrist to overturn the freeholders' decision expunging his name from the roll of Sutherland freeholders. Gilchrist objected that Gordon's liferent-right of superiority had been extinguished by his father's sale of Pulrossie and an obligation to Dempster freeing the purchaser from feudal dues. Gordon replied that his freehold right remained unaffected by his father's transaction, while Gilchrist duplied that Gordon was bound by his father's deeds and obligations.AI-generated
