(c) This Precedent may be used whenever the property stands limited to the common uses to bar dower, and the conveyance is in fee simple. It is not unusual to make the appointment and the grant by separate witnessing parts. See infra, p. 215. There is, however, no reason why they should not be combined as in the text, when the intention is to vest the fee simple in the purchaser.

(d) With regard to the description of the parcels and the general words and estate clause, see supra, p. 208, n. (ƒ). The estate clause is connected with the grant, and not with the appointment: see Vol. i. p. 89.

(e) Under ordinary circumstances, vendors have acquired a power of appointment such as that exercised in this Precedent, by a conveyance made to them when they purchased the property, and consequently their covenants for title when they sell the estate are usually confined to their own acts; but if the power has been con
