(c) If the legal estate in the settled share is not in the trustees, and it is necessary to convey it by revocation and appointment of the use (as in Precedent XXVIII.), the revocation must be by a separate clause preceding the operative part in the text as follows:

"NOW THIS INDRE WITNETH, that in psuance, &c., and in conson of the sum of £- paid to them as hinafter expd (being one equal sixth pt of the sd pchase-money of £), the sd D. and E. as trees and in exercise of the power given to them by the sd indre of settlemt of, &c., and of every, &c., and with the consent (hby testified) of the sd F., do hby revoke and make void all and every the uses, trusts, estes, limons, powers, and provons by and in the sd indre of settlemt expd and decld of and concerning the one equal sixth pt therein comprd of the hereds hinafter described and intended to be hby assured, AND THIS INDRE FURTHER WITNETH, &c."

It would in this case be simpler and shorter to frame the conveyance for title. in the following form, the implied covenants of the beneficial owners being qualified by a proviso at the end of the deed, as follows (see p. 368, note; p. 384); and in a case in which the interests of the parties are uncertain (e.g., where they depend on a will of doubtful construction), this mode of conveyance must almost necessarily be adopted.
