"And his heirs" were also said to be words of inheritance since they indicated an inheritable estate, as opposed to a life estate which died with the life tenant. Moreover, they were words of general inheritance in contrast to "and the heirs of his body" which created a fee tail and were words of special inheritance, limiting the estate to descendants of A. (Cribbet, p. 42). 1, record 1, English, - words%20of%20special%20inheritance
