Assume that A was seized of the fee simple estate in Blackacre, and that A's heir, C, was an infant aged ten years. At common law, upon the death of A, the fee simple estate would pass, by inheritance, to C. As C was an infant, the land would go into wardship and with the land also would go the child. Blackacre would become subject to the onerous feudal incidents of wardship and marriage and, as a result, financial havoc could be wrought upon A's family. To avoid this result, A would make the following disposition of Blackacre by way of a use : A would be the "feoffor to uses", B the "feoffee to uses", and C the "cestui que use". B would undertake to hold the fee simple estate to the use of A until his death and, thereafter, to the use of C, A's heir. 2, record 2, English, - feoffor%20to%20uses

The creation of easements by the implication of law is based upon an implied grant which arises upon a grant or disposition of either the dominant or servient tenement by a common owner. Where the owner of two tenements sells one, a grant will be implied of those continuous and apparent easements which during the unity of possession were enjoyed under the title of ownership. Only those easements which are used as of necessity or are in their nature continuous will pass by implication of law without any words of grant....(Anger & Honsberger, 2nd ed., 1985, p. 932) 1, record 4, English, - implied%20grant

The common law was very strict and in order to pass a fee simple estate required, upon alienation "inter vivos", the use of formal language. The classic words of limitation comprised the phrase "and his heirs", followed by the grantee's name : that is, to "A and his heirs".(Mendes da Costa and Balfour, p. 648) 1, record 6, English, - alienation%20inter%20vivos

Down to 1881 it was customary to insert in every conveyance after the grant of the parcels and the general words the following words :"And all the estate right title interest claim and demands of the grantor unto and upon the said premises. "Even before 1881 these words-known as the "estate clause, "or "all estate clause"-had no effect in law : nothing passed under them which would not pass without them; and now they are omitted in reliance on the "Law of Property Act", 1925,... which enacts that every conveyance shall pass all the estate, right, title, interest, claim and demand of the grantor unless a contrary intention is expressed.(Jowitt, 2nd ed., 1977, p. 725). 1, record 7, English, - estate%20clause

South-East of Lautaret Pass, the tectonic "slices" acting upon the crystalline basement are of prenummulitic age. The imbricated structures hintherto regarded as postnummulitic thrusts are to be explained as olistholites or, in other places, as resulting from cross-fracturing, following overthrusting of the inner zone. 2, record 13, English, - tectonic%20slice

Workpieces having dimensions less than 4 in. can be powder coated with a device known as an electrostatic fluidized bed. In this process, powder is held in a container having an open top and a porous bottom through which an upward flow of air causes the powder mass to levitate or "fluidize". Charging electrodes near the surface impart an electrical charge to the powder. Electrically grounded workpieces pass over the surface of the bed and collect a coating of powder. The coating is then cured in a baking oven. There are techniques for applying dry powder coatings without the use of electrostatics.... These processes typically involve preheating the workpiece to a temperature substantially above the melting point of the powder and then applying the powder, either by dipping the workpiece into a fluidized bed or by spraying air-suspended powder directly onto the hot surface of the workpiece. The powder melts immediately upon contact and flows to form a film, which is subsequently cured in a bake oven. 2, record 20, English, - sublimation%20coating
