the_o head_n of_o the_o judge_n argument_n for_o the_o decease_a duke_n of_o norfolk_n in_o the_o case_n between_o he_o and_o his_o brother_n mr._n charles_n howard_n with_o some_o observation_n on_o the_o lord_n chancellor_n nottingham_n argument_n the_o judge_n all_o agree_v that_o the_o limitation_n to_o charles_n howard_n be_v a_o void_a limitation_n of_o the_o trust_n and_o that_o the_o

to_o he_o and_o the_o heir_n male_n of_o his_o body_n which_o in_o law_n be_v a_o disposition_n of_o the_o whole_a interest_n such_o a_o trust_n be_v indeed_o great_a in_o its_o nature_n than_o a_o term_n of_o year_n be_v capable_a of_o in_o regard_n it_o can_v go_v to_o heir_n male_n but_o therefore_o have_v be_v often_o resolve_v to_o contain_v the_o whole_a interest_n and_o where_o a_o term_n for_o year_n be_v under_o such_o a_o limitation_n that_o will_v admit_v no_o remainder_n there_o can_v be_v no_o contingent_a remainder_n limit_v of_o such_o a_o term_n and_o to_o make_v that_o

have_v the_o countenance_n of_o the_o law_n 2._o it_o be_v contrary_a to_o the_o rule_n of_o law_n to_o limit_v a_o interest_n either_o in_o law_n or_o equity_n of_o a_o term_n to_o take_v effect_n after_o any_o one_o die_v without_o issue_n of_o his_o body_n and_o of_o a_o dangerous_a consequence_n for_o it_o will_v tend_v to_o make_v perpetuity_n and_o fetter_v estate_n inasmuch_o as_o it_o be_v allow_v of_o all_o hand_n that_o if_o there_o can_v be_v such_o a_o limitation_n by_o law_n allow_v after_o a_o die_a without_o issue_n male_a there_o be_v no_o possibility_n of_o dock_v or_o destroy_v the_o interest_n that_o be_v under_o such_o limitation_n so_o that_o such_o estate_n can_v never_o be_v sell_v or_o part_v with_o no_o recovery_n reach_v they_o nor_o no_o method_n in_o the_o law_n nor_o possibility_n to_o do_v it_o which_o will_v make_v estate_n stagnate_n in_o a_o family_n and_o discourage_v all_o ingenuity_n and_o industry_n which_o the_o law_n perfect_o abhor_v and_o this_o the_o lord_n chancellor_n allow_v in_o his_o argument_n in_o this_o case_n in_o his_o three_o conclusion_n and_o it_o mend_v not_o the_o matter_n to_o say_v that_o this_o be_v under_o a_o limitation_n of_o thomas_n his_o die_v without_o issue_n in_o the_o life_n of_o henry_n for_o 3._o putarem_fw-la this_o be_v a_o stretch_v far_a than_o ever_o before_o be_v endeavour_v the_o judge_n

die_v without_o issue_n in_o the_o life_n of_o henry_n than_o the_o next_o strain_n will_v be_v to_o limit_v a_o term_n over_o upon_o one_o die_v without_o issue_n during_o the_o life_n of_o two_o or_o three_o and_o then_o of_o twenty_o man_n and_o then_o if_o he_o shall_v die_v without_o issue_n within_o seven_o year_n for_o that_o be_v equal_a to_o a_o life_n and_o then_o within_o twenty_o
