the_o kingdom_n and_o aught_o to_o take_v place_n in_o this_o court_n as_o well_o as_o any_o other_o court._n so_o i_o take_v it_o then_o that_o the_o trust_v of_o a_o term_n be_v as_o much_o a_o

shall_v be_v carry_v further_o in_o a_o court_n of_o equity_n than_o the_o devise_n of_o a_o term_n in_o the_o court_n of_o common_a law._n it_o be_v true_a where_o there_o be_v a_o long_a term_n in_o be_v upon_o mortgage_n and_o as_o a_o security_n which_o be_v determine_v it_o be_v of_o great_a conveniency_n that_o it_o shall_v be_v keep_v on_o foot_n to_o protect_v the_o inheritance_n and_o so_o it_o will_v lie_v still_o to_o wait_v upon_o the_o inheritance_n and_o thereupon_o in_o many_o descent_n it_o will_v go_v from_o heir_n to_o heir_n and_o that_o upon_o a_o particular_a consideration_n to_o attend_v and_o protect_v the_o inheritance_n but_o for_o a_o mere_a chattel_n to_o go_v from_o heir_n to_o heir_n be_v not_o the_o same_o case_n nor_o do_v i_o see_v any_o reason_n why_o this_o court_n shall_v carry_v such_o a_o chattel_n any_o further_a than_o devise_n of_o term_n be_v carry_v at_o common_a law._n now_o let_v we_o see_v and_o a_o little_a consider_v what_o those_o rule_n be_v and_o how_o they_o be_v appliable_a to_o this_o case_n in_o both_o case_n a_o term_n may_v be_v limit_v for_o life_n to_o one_o with_o remainder_n over_o though_o in_o the_o bare_a consideration_n of_o law_n a_o estate_n for_o life_n be_v a_o great_a estate_n than_o a_o term_n for_o year_n but_o in_o case_n of_o a_o estate-tail_n there_o can_v be_v no_o such_o thing_n therefore_o in_o burgess_n case_n the_o trust_n of_o a_o term_n be_v limit_v to_o a._n for_o life_n the_o remainder_n to_o his_o wife_n for_o life_n the_o remainder_n to_o the_o first_o second_o and_o other_o son_n successive_o and_o the_o issue_n of_o their_o body_n and_o for_o default_n of_o such_o issue_n to_o the_o daughter_n of_o a._n and_o their_o issue_n the_o remainder_n to_o the_o right_a

daughter_n shall_v have_v the_o trust_v vest_v in_o she_o and_o that_o the_o trust_v for_o the_o daughter_n shall_v close_v with_o the_o estate_n for_o life_n till_o a._n shall_v have_v a_o son._n but_o because_o there_o be_v a_o limitation_n to_o the_o first_o son_n of_o a._n and_o the_o issue_n of_o his_o body_n and_o the_o remainder_n of_o the_o daughter_n be_v but_o to_o take_v place_n after_o that_o son_n die_v without_o issue_n and_o so_o the_o other_o though_o it_o be_v not_o to_o a_o son_n then_o in_o be_v but_o his_o estate_n be_v in_o contingency_n which_o do_v never_o happen_v yet_o the_o court_n do_v not_o allow_v of_o any_o such_o thing_n as_o any_o remainder_n that_o the_o daughter_n shall_v have_v but_o make_v a_o decree_n for_o the_o execution_n of_o the_o devisee_fw-mi so_o that_o it_o be_v clear_a there_o can_v be_v no_o direct_a remainder_n of_o the_o trust_n of_o a_o term_n upon_o a_o estate-tail_n the_o question_n than_o be_v whether_o there_o can_v be_v any_o contigent_a remainder_n for_o this_o for_o this_o case_n depend_v upon_o that_o consideration_n i._n e._n it_o be_v limit_v upon_o a_o contingency_n if_o such_o a_o thing_n shall_v happen_v in_o the_o life_n of_o a_o man_n and_o so_o it_o be_v a_o spring_a trust_n and_o good_a that_o way_n my_o lord_n i_o take_v it_o in_o this_o case_n where_o there_o can_v be_v no_o direct_a remainder_n there_o can_v be_v no_o contingent_a remainder_n though_o it_o happen_v never_o so_o soon_o therefore_o if_o a_o term_n be_v limit_v to_o one_o and_o his_o heir_n of_o his_o body_n and_o he_o die_v without_o issue_n of_o his_o body_n within_o two_o year_n the_o remainder_n over_o there_o can_v be_v no_o such_o remainder_n limit_v at_o all_o and_o therefore_o no_o contingent_a remainder_n for_o this_o remainder_n be_v limit_v at_o the_o end_n of_o a_o entail_n and_o that_o be_v so_o remote_a a_o consideration_n that_o as_o the_o law_n will_v not_o suffer_v a_o direct_a remainder_n upon_o it_o so_o upon_o a_o contingency_n neither_o now_o in_o this_o case_n there_o be_v only_o this_o difference_n if_o the_o estate-tail_n in_o this_o term_n have_v be_v limit_v to_o my_o lord_n maltravers_n as_o it_o be_v here_o to_o henry_n howard_n and_o the_o heir_n of_o his_o body_n and_o if_o he_o die_v without_o issue_n in_o the_o life_n of_o henry_n etc._n etc._n then_o the_o remainder_n over_o than_o it_o have_v be_v clear_a the_o contingency_n have_v be_v limit_v upon_o the_o expire_a of_o the_o entail_n and_o though_o it_o be_v say_v that_o it_o expire_v within_o the_o compass_n of_o the_o life_n of_o a_o man_n yet_o that_o help_v not_o in_o this_o case_n at_o all_o as_o i_o conceive_v for_o i_o will_v put_v a_o case_n upon_o a_o fee-simple_n upon_o pell_n and_o brown_n case_n a_o man_n limit_n a_o estate_n in_o fee-simple_n to_o a_o man_n and_o his_o heir_n and_o if_o he_o die_v without_o heir_n during_o the_o life_n of_o j._n s._n then_o to_o j._n d._n this_o be_v void_a and_o the_o lord_n shall_v have_v it_o by_o escheat_n and_o that_o though_o it_o be_v bring_v within_o the_o compass_n of_o the_o life_n of_o a_o man_n shall_v never_o be_v a_o good_a limitation_n and_o if_o that_o case_n of_o pell_n and_o brown_n have_v be_v that_o a_o man_n devise_v land_n to_o a_o man_n and_o his_o heir_n whereby_o it_o will_v appear_v that_o it_o be_v intend_v the_o devisee_n shall_v have_v have_v a_o fee-simple_n with_o a_o remainder_n over_o upon_o a_o contingency_n i_o take_v it_o this_o can_v not_o be_v good_a by_o way_n of_o executory_a devise_n because_o a_o man_n die_v without_o heir_n which_o to_o lose_v his_o fee-simple_n he_o must_v do_v come_v not_o under_o the_o intention_n of_o the_o law_n as_o of_o a_o contingency_n a_o estate_n for_o life_n in_o the_o judgement_n of_o the_o law_n be_v of_o long_a duration_n than_o a_o term_n for_o year_n and_o the_o rule_n in_o child_n and_o baily_n case_n be_v firm_a that_o the_o expire_n of_o the_o limitation_n of_o a_o term_n in_o tail_n within_o the_o life_n of_o a_o man_n will_v not_o make_v good_a a_o limitation_n of_o the_o remainder_n over_o which_o i_o hold_v to_o be_v a_o good_a rule_n and_o the_o reason_n of_o it_o i_o conceive_v will_v reach_v to_o this_o case_n for_o what_o be_v the_o difference_n here_o be_v a_o contingency_n indeed_o but_o it_o be_v to_o have_v a_o estate-tail_n expire_v within_o one_o life_n which_o i_o take_v to_o be_v the_o same_o case_n suppose_v the_o term_n have_v be_v limit_v to_o henry_n and_o the_o heir_n male_n of_o his_o body_n so_o long_o as_o thomas_n shall_v have_v heir_n male_a of_o his_o body_n that_o will_v sure_o have_v cut_v off_o the_o remainder_n and_o what_o be_v the_o difference_n for_o it_o do_v depend_v upon_o thomas_n die_v without_o issue_n whereby_o the_o earldom_n shall_v descend_v then_o when_o it_o be_v limit_v to_o henry_n and_o the_o heir_n male_n of_o his_o body_n and_o if_o thomas_n die_v without_o issue_n in_o the_o life_n of_o henry_n then_o over_o this_o can_v no_o more_o abridge_v it_o than_o if_o he_o have_v say_v if_o henry_n die_v without_o issue_n during_o the_o life_n of_o another_o man._n so_o that_o i_o think_v the_o whole_a term_n be_v swallow_v in_o the_o estate-tail_n upon_o this_o consideration_n and_o there_o can_v be_v no_o remainder_n of_o it_o no_o executory_a devise_n nor_o any_o spring_a trust_n to_o charles_n upon_o this_o contingency_n and_o my_o lord_n upon_o that_o reason_n i_o think_v this_o settlement_n fail_v and_o be_v disappoint_v as_o to_o the_o young_a brother_n if_o it_o have_v be_v limit_v to_o henry_n for_o life_n only_o and_o no_o further_o then_o let_v the_o contingency_n have_v be_v what_o it_o will_v that_o be_v to_o happen_v in_o his_o life_n if_o complicate_v with_o several_a ascendant_n yet_o it_o shall_v be_v good_a in_o remainder_n because_o the_o law_n do_v allow_v a_o remainder_n direct_o upon_o a_o estate_n for_o life_n and_o so_o it_o will_v also_o in_o contingency_n if_o that_o be_v to_o happen_v during_o the_o continuance_n of_o the_o particular_a estate_n but_o i_o take_v this_o to_o be_v a_o step_n further_o than_o any_o of_o our_o resolution_n in_o law_n have_v go_v yet_o and_o therefore_o i_o can_v see_v reason_n to_o extend_v the_o exposition_n any_o further_o but_o
