Opinion
The opinion
Gregory, C. J.
I concur in the result arrived at, but do not approve of the criticism on the rule in Shelley’s case, as applied to devises, as held in Perrin v. Blake. Nor do I join in the suggestion that the rule in Shelley’s case ought to be modified by legislation.
The judgment is affirmed with costs.
