the_o executor_n assent_n that_o a_o shall_v have_v the_o rent_n be_v no_o assent_n that_o b_o shall_v have_v the_o land_n case_n yet_o i_o think_v the_o assent_n that_o b_o shall_v have_v the_o

will_n and_o not_o in_o any_o different_a or_o contrary_a manner_n next_o we_o be_v to_o consider_v of_o the_o manner_n of_o assent_n by_o executor_n which_o have_v some_o affinity_n with_o the_o four_o point_n but_o here_o we_o shall_v consider_v only_o of_o assent_n conditional_a now_o to_o this_o purpose_n we_o will_v cast_v our_o eye_n upon_o two_o sort_n of_o condition_n viz._n precedent_n and_o subsequent_a as_o for_o â—he_n former_a a_o executor_n may_v to_o a_o legatee_n absolute_o give_v assent_n upon_o a_o condition_n precedent_n as_o thus_o i_o be_o content_a that_o if_o you_o can_v get_v and_o bring_v in_o to_o i_o such_o a_o bond_n wherein_o the_o testator_n stand_v bind_v unto_o i._n s._n that_o then_o you_o enter_v upon_o the_o term_n or_o take_v the_o corn_n or_o cattle_n to_o you_o bequeath_v so_o of_o other_o like_a condition_n which_o may_v precede_v the_o assent_n as_o if_o you_o can_v get_v the_o assent_n of_o my_o coexecutor_n or_o if_o you_o will_v pay_v the_o arrearage_n of_o rent_n to_o the_o lessor_n behind_o at_o the_o testator_n death_n or_o if_o you_o will_v pay_v the_o wage_n already_o due_a to_o the_o servant_n attend_v about_o the_o cattle_n or_o corn_n to_o you_o bequeath_v in_o this_o case_n if_o the_o condition_n be_v not_o perform_v there_o be_v no_o assent_n and_o therefore_o the_o condition_v in_o this_o manner_n be_v good_a but_o if_o it_o be_v upon_o a_o condition_n subsequent_a as_o thus_o i_o do_v agree_v that_o you_o shall_v have_v the_o thing_n bequeath_v to_o you_o provide_v that_o you_o shall_v pay_v so_o much_o yearly_o to_o i_o or_o to_o such_o a_o creditor_n of_o the_o testator_n now_o the_o legatee_n enter_v into_o or_o take_v the_o thing_n bequeath_v shall_v not_o lose_v it_o again_o by_o fail_v to_o perform_v the_o condition_n afterward_o for_o the_o executor_n by_o his_o assent_n can_v make_v that_o legacy_n conditional_a which_o the_o testator_n give_v absolute_o no_o more_o than_o he_o can_v make_v that_o bequest_n to_o be_v absolute_a which_o the_o testator_n give_v conditional_o except_o by_o a_o release_n make_v of_o the_o condition_n as_o in_o other_o thing_n so_o in_o this_o the_o executor_n assent_n be_v like_a to_o the_o atturnment_n of_o a_o lessee_n which_o can_v be_v upon_o a_o condition_n subsequent_a where_o the_o grant_n be_v absolute_a or_o without_o condition_n though_o yet_o he_o may_v to_o his_o atturnment_n prefix_v a_o condition_n precedent_n in_o the_o eight_o place_n we_o be_v touch_v the_o bequest_n of_o lease_n or_o chattel_n real_a to_o consider_v what_o manner_n of_o interest_n one_o to_o who_o a_o remainder_n of_o a_o term_n after_o the_o death_n of_o another_o be_v limit_v have_v and_o whether_o he_o may_v grant_v the_o same_o or_o dispose_v thereof_o during_o the_o life_n of_o the_o first_o and_o as_o to_o that_o it_o be_v clear_a that_o he_o have_v but_o a_o possibility_n of_o remainder_n for_o that_o possible_o the_o whole_a term_n may_v be_v spend_v in_o the_o life_n of_o the_o first_o to_o who_o during_o his_o or_o her_o life_n it_o be_v bequeath_v now_o a_o mere_a possibility_n be_v not_o grantable_a therefore_o be_v it_o resolve_v in_o the_o late_a queen_n time_n case_n where_o he_o in_o remainder_n grant_v or_o sell_v his_o state_n or_o interest_n to_o another_o during_o the_o time_n of_o the_o first_o that_o this_o grant_n be_v utter_o void_a because_o a_o possibility_n can_v be_v grant_v 48._o but_o whereas_o some_o opinion_n in_o that_o case_n be_v deliver_v that_o this_o possibility_n can_v not_o be_v release_v no_o more_o then_o grant_v it_o have_v since_o be_v resolve_v that_o he_o in_o the_o remainder_n by_o his_o deed_n of_o grant_n or_o release_v to_o the_o devisee_fw-mi for_o life_n may_v make_v his_o estate_n which_o before_o be_v determinable_a by_o his_o death_n to_o be_v now_o absolute_a so_o as_o it_o shall_v continue_v to_o his_o executor_n administrator_n and_o assign_v after_o his_o death_n during_o the_o whole_a term_n it_o may_v be_v that_o what_o be_v conceive_v in_o the_o say_a case_n of_o fulsey_n negative_o of_o the_o validity_n of_o a_o release_n by_o he_o in_o the_o

and_o a_o executor_n as_o to_o the_o first_o the_o very_a name_n of_o executor_n purport_v in_o the_o general_a one_o that_o be_v to_o execute_v somewhat_o or_o to_o who_o the_o execution_n of_o somewhat_o be_v commit_v or_o recommend_v in_o our_o particular_a therefore_o a_o executor_n of_o a_o will_n must_v needs_o be_v such_o a_o one_o to_o who_o the_o execution_n and_o performance_n of_o

executor_n which_o be_v usual_a another_o caution_n be_v that_o where_o a_o man_n seize_v of_o land_n in_o fee-simple_n dispose_v the_o same_o or_o part_v thereof_o by_o his_o will_n in_o writing_n

that_o of_o our_o profession_n but_o forasmuch_o as_o i_o find_v that_o in_o the_o court_v spiritual_a a_o wife_n stand_v in_o the_o same_o plight_n and_o state_n as_o a_o woman_n sole_a the_o

that_o it_o be_v do_v to_o the_o use_n or_o profit_n of_o the_o infant_n executor_n than_o no_o sale_n of_o lease_n or_o good_n or_o assent_n to_o legacy_n by_o such_o administrator_n will_v bind_v
