In the absence of a contrary provision in the settlement, a tenant for life has no power to mortgage or charge the legal estate for his own benefit. If he wishes to raise money for his own use, he can of course do so by mortgaging his beneficial interest, consisting of his life interest, entail or whatever interest he has.(Megarry and Wade, p. 339) 2, record 1, English, - beneficial%20interest

The owner in fee is no less, in legal contemplation, a tenant, than the man who occupies under him, since the definition of tenant is one that holds or possesses lands, or tenements by any kind of title, either in fee, for life, years, or at will, and often includes a tenant at sufferance.(Cartwright, 1972, pp. 918-919). 1, record 13, English, - tenant

In its proper use, "tenant" connotes either estate or tenure.

At common law, whenever a husband became seised(otherwise than as a joint tenant) of an estate of inheritance during coverture which issue of the marriage, if any, could inherit, the wife obtained an inchoate right of dower therein which became consummate on the husband's death survived by his wife. The dower right was a life interest in one-third of such freeholds of inheritance and constituted a clog on the husband's title even in his life-time.(Laskin, Revised Edition 1964, p. 72). 1, record 27, English, - dower%20right

At common law, a tenant "pur autre vie" could not devise his estate by will and... it could not pass to his heirs by descent. On his death, however, the land did not revert to the grantor... and it did not escheat.... By reason of the rule that the freehold must never be vacant, the estate was completed by means of the doctrine of occupancy. If no one was entitled to enter into occupancy, any person who did enter into possession could hold the land during the life of the "cestui que vie" by right of occupancy....(Anger & Honsberger, 2nd ed., 1985, p. 156). 1, record 29, English, - doctrine%20of%20occupancy
