which_o they_o have_v notice_n so_o that_o the_o question_n be_v reduce_v to_o this_o main_a single_a point_n whether_o all_o this_o care_n that_o be_v take_v to_o settle_v this_o estate_n and_o

this_o question_n to_o be_v of_o so_o universal_a a_o concernment_n to_o all_o man_n rite_n and_o property_n in_o point_n of_o dispose_n of_o their_o estate_n as_o to_o most_o conveyance_n make_v and_o settle_v in_o the_o late_a time_n and_o yet_o on_o foot_n that_o be_v afraid_a i_o may_v shake_v more_o settlement_n than_o i_o be_o willing_a to_o do_v i_o be_o not_o dispose_v to_o keep_v so_o close_o and_o strict_o to_o the_o rule_n of_o law_n as_o the_o judge_n of_o the_o common-law_n do_v as_o not_o to_o look_v to_o the_o reason_n and_o consequence_n that_o may_v follow_v upon_o the_o determination_n of_o this_o case_n i_o can_v say_v in_o this_o case_n that_o this_o limitation_n be_v void_a and_o because_o this_o be_v a_o point_n that_o in_o court_n of_o equity_n which_o be_v not_o favour_v by_o the_o judgement_n of_o the_o court_n of_o law_n be_v seldom_o debate_v with_o any_o great_a industry_n at_o the_o bar_n
the_o case_n for_o if_o so_o be_v this_o be_v a_o good_a limitation_n of_o the_o trust_n and_o they_o who_o have_v notice_n of_o it_o will_v palpable_o break_v it_o they_o be_v bind_v by_o the_o rule_n of_o equity_n to_o make_v it_o good_a by_o make_v some_o reparation_n nay_o which_o be_v more_o if_o the_o heir_n enter_v upon_o the_o estate_n to_o defeat_v the_o trust_n that_o very_a estate_n do_v remain_v in_o equity_n infect_v with_o the_o trust_n which_o be_v the_o case_n of_o my_o lord_n of_o thomond_n so_o also_o be_v the_o resolution_n in_o jackson_n and_o jackson_n case_n so_o that_o to_o i_o the_o right_n appear_v clear_a and_o the_o remedy_n seem_v not_o to_o be_v difficult_a therefore_o my_o present_a thought_n be_v that_o the_o trust_v of_o this_o term_n be_v well_o limit_v to_o charles_n who_o ought_v to_o have_v the_o trust_v of_o the_o whole_a term_n decree_v to_o he_o and_o a_o account_n of_o the_o mean_a profit_n for_o the_o time_n by_o past_a and_o a_o recompense_n make_v to_o he_o from_o the_o duke_n and_o maryot_n for_o the_o time_n to_o come_v but_o i_o do_v not_o pay_v so_o little_a reverence_n to_o the_o company_n i_o be_o in_o as_o to_o run_v down_o their_o solemn_a argument_n and_o opinion_n upon_o my_o present_a sentiment_n and_o therefore_o i_o do_v suspend_v the_o inrolment_n of_o any_o decree_n in_o this_o case_n as_o yet_o but_o i_o will_v give_v myself_o some_o time_n to_o consider_v before_o i_o take_v any_o final_a resolution_n see_v the_o lord_n the_o judge_n do_v differ_v from_o i_o in_o their_o opinion_n the_o end_n of_o the_o first_o argument_n the_o second_o argument_n i_o be_o not_o sorry_a for_o the_o liberty_n that_o be_v take_v at_o the_o bar_n to_o argue_v this_o over_o again_o because_o i_o desire_v it_o shall_v be_v so_o for_o in_o truth_n i_o be_o not_o in_o love_n with_o my_o own_o opinion_n and_o i_o have_v not_o take_v all_o this_o time_n to_o consider_v of_o it_o but_o with_o very_o great_a willingness_n to_o change_v it_o if_o it_o be_v possible_a i_o have_v as_o fair_a and_o as_o justifiable_a a_o opportunity_n to_o follow_v my_o own_o inclination_n if_o it_o be_v lawful_a for_o a_o judge_n to_o say_v he_o have_v any_o as_o i_o can_v desire_v for_o i_o can_v concur_v with_o the_o three_o chief_a judge_n and_o make_v a_o decree_n that_o will_v be_v unexceptionable_a but_o it_o be_v my_o decree_n i_o must_v be_v save_v by_o my_o own_o faith_n and_o must_v not_o decree_v against_o my_o own_o conscience_n and_o reason_n it_o will_v be_v good_a for_o the_o satisfaction_n of_o the_o public_a in_o this_o case_n to_o take_v notice_n how_o far_o the_o court_n be_v agree_v in_o this_o case_n and_o then_o see_v where_o they_o differ_v and_o upon_o what_o ground_n they_o differ_v and_o whether_o any_o thing_n that_o have_v be_v say_v be_v a_o ground_n for_o the_o change_a this_o opinion_n the_o court_n agree_v thus_o far_o that_o in_o this_o case_n it_o be_v all_o one_o the_o limitation_n of_o the_o trust_n of_o a_o term_n or_o the_o limitation_n of_o the_o estate_n of_o a_o term_n all_o depend_v upon_o one_o and_o the_o same_o reason_n the_o court_n be_v likewise_o agree_v which_o i_o shall_v have_v say_v first_o to_o dispatch_v it_o out_o of_o the_o case_n that_o it_o may_v not_o trouble_v the_o case_n at_o all_o that_o the_o surrender_n of_o maryot_n to_o the_o duke_n of_o norfolk_n and_o the_o common_a recovery_n suffer_v by_o the_o duke_n be_v of_o no_o use_n at_o all_o in_o this_o case_n for_o if_o this_o limitation_n to_o charles_n be_v good_a then_o be_v that_o surrender_n and_o the_o recovery_n a_o breach_n of_o trust_n and_o aught_o to_o be_v set_v aside_o in_o equity_n so_o all_o the_o judge_n that_o assist_v at_o the_o hear_n of_o this_o cause_n agree_v if_o the_o limitation_n be_v not_o good_a then_o there_o be_v no_o need_n at_o all_o of_o a_o surrender_n to_o bar_v it_o nor_o of_o the_o common_a recovery_n to_o extinguish_v it_o but_o then_o we_o come_v to_o consider_v the_o limitation_n and_o there_o it_o be_v agree_v all_o along_o in_o point_n of_o law_n that_o the_o measure_n of_o the_o limitation_n of_o the_o trust_n of_o a_o term_n and_o the_o measure_n of_o the_o limitation_n of_o the_o estate_n of_o a_o term_n be_v all_o one_o and_o uniform_a here_o and_o in_o other_o case_n and_o there_o be_v no_o difference_n at_o chancery_n or_o at_o common_a law_n between_o the_o rule_n of_o the_o one_o and_o the_o rule_n of_o the_o other_o what_o be_v good_a in_o one_o case_n be_v good_a in_o the_o other_o and_o therefore_o in_o this_o case_n the_o court_n be_v agree_v too_o that_o the_o limitation_n make_v in_o this_o settlement_n to_o edward_n etc._n etc._n be_v all_o void_a for_o they_o tend_v direct_o and_o plain_o to_o perpetuity_n for_o they_o be_v limitation_n of_o remainder_n of_o a_o term_n in_o gross_a after_o a_o estate-tail_n in_o that_o term_n which_o commence_v to_o be_v a_o term_n in_o gross_a when_o the_o contingency_n for_o charles_n happen_v thus_o far_o there_o be_v no_o difference_n of_o opinion_n but_o whether_o the_o limitation_n to_o charles_n if_o thomas_n die_v without_o

the_o judge_n when_o they_o do_v allow_v the_o remainder_n of_o term_n after_o estate_n tail_n in_o those_o term_n to_o be_v void_a i_o shall_v not_o devise_v a_o term_n to_o a_o man_n in_o tail_n
