[IDEM libro quadragesimo septimo digestorum. ] §29.2.44.prQuotiens pupillus patri heres exstitit et abstinet se hereditate, quamuis patris bona sub creditoribus fiant, tamen rata haberi debent, quaccumque pupillus bona fide gesserit: et ideo ei, qui fundum tutore auctore a pupillo emerit, succurrendum erit: nec interest, pupillus soluendo sit nec ne.
[THE SAME, in the forty-seventh book of Digests.] Whenever a pupil has become heir to his father and abstains from the inheritance, although the father's goods come under the power of the creditors, nevertheless, whatever the pupil has done in good faith ought to be held valid; and therefore, relief must be given to him who has bought land from the pupil with the authority of his tutor; nor does it matter whether the pupil is solvent or not.
