Sharpe, J.
{concurring). By the reservation in his deed to defendants’ grantors, Harrington created an easement in the 812/3 acres conveyed for the benefit of the 19 1/3 retained by him. This easement, an interest in land, even if not transferred by the deed to Foote, did not pass to plaintiff on his parol purchase of the standing timber. Such sale but amounted to a revocable license to remove the timber. The assignment of an easement must be- in writing. 3 Comp. Laws 1915, § 11975.
