LAW INIT'LLIGV'_:CE.

COURT OV CILI.i\ZERY, MAY 13.

NeNANIARA, ESA.. V. LORD WDITWORTH AND OtttEtk§,

This was a bill filed by the plaintiff to prove the
last will and testament Of- George Wbitworth,i.
Esq. father of the present Lord Whitworth, which
was made 'in favour of John NPNamara, the se-
cond son of the plaintiff, in•rernainder in‘lee after
certain estates tor life and in tail male tb: Lord
Whitworth, then an Anibasador at a foreign
Court from Great Britian.

The limitation was to Dora Whitworth for life,
with 'remainder to-his sons in tail male of the tes-
tator's estates, situate in the counties of Stafford
and Salop; and in default of issue in tail male to
Lord Aylmer and his issue in tail male in like man-
ner, and in default of such issue in tail male, to
Mr. Ponsford and sons in tail male in like manner,
with remainder for life to Edmund Plowdeu, Esq.
Kith ultimate remainde► to John IV‘Namara,
coed son of John McNamara, Esq. of Castle,
in Wales.

The object of the bill was to get-a declaration
of .the Culla upon the true construction of the
will, and have the estates put into strict settle
ment for the uses of the pi'ovisions thereof..
Sir S. liostiLLY, supperted. by Mr. Potw-
mottE, argued in support of the plaintiff's claim
to the remainder in tee, and' for holding the in-
tepnediate limitations in the event of sons in tail
male not existing to Lord Whitworth, as seems
to.-be the case, in strict settlement.

• The Counsel of Lord Aylmer made no opposi-
tion, but those of Mr. Ponstord, who has issue,
,opposed the settlement on the ground that the
preceding limitations were to persons having no
issue, and Mr. Plowden being merely remainder
man for tile, and only a trustee for the rever•siouer
ortenminder man in fee, made no defence.

.The words as aforesaid created much discussion
as to their effect on the limitations.

Sir S. RONILLY teplied, and his lioNoutt, with
his accustomed deal ness and great precision, int-
mecliately gave judgment in favour of the limita-
tions throughout, and for putting the estates into
strict settlement in favour of the ultimate remain-
dcr in fee.—Judgment for the plaintiff.
