If a portion of a united parish in Scotland has under the provisions of the recited Act been erected into a parish quoad sacra, and it shall appear in the course of any proceedings taken under this Act that there is more than one glebe forming part of the benefice of such united parish, it shall be lawful for the Court of Teinds, upon sufficient evidence being produced of the consent of the Presbytery, to decern and declare that one of such glebes, duly described by its marches and boundaries and with its parts and pertinents, shall be transferred from the minister of such united parish to the minister of such parish quoad sacra; and such glebe shall thereafter be the glebe of the said parish quoad sacra; and the minister thereof shall be invested with all those rights in relation thereto which were formerly vested in the minister of the said united parish: Provided always, that the right to the personal occupancy and enjoyment of such glebe as aforesaid shall continue with the minister of the said united parish in office at the date of such decree during his incumbency, unless he shall, by a deed duly executed and lodged with the clerk of the presbytery, renounce the same.
