A settlor might ... attempt to create what was known as a "perpetual freehold" by giving the land "to X for life, remainder to his son for life, remainder to the son's son for life" and so on "ad infinitum", thus creating a series of life estates closely resembling an unbarrable entail. ... (T)he device of successive life interests was kept within bounds by the rule in "Whitby" v. "Mitchell". The rule against unbarrable entails and the rule against successive life interests were thus complementary to one another. (Megarry & Wade, 4th ed., 1975, p. 203).
