Tised his fortune to trustees, for accumulation during the lives of three sons and of their sons, and during the life of the survivor. At the death of this last survivor the fund was to he divided into three shares — one share for the eldest male lineal descendant of each of his three sons; upon failure of such descendant, the share to go to the descendants of the other sons. The testator left three sons and four grandsons living, and twin sons horn soon after his death. It was foimd that at the death of these nine persons the fund would exceed nineteen million pounds; and, upon the supposition of only one person to take and a majority of ten years, that the sum would exceed thirty -two million pounds. The will was upheld, as within the limits of the common-law riile, by the court of chancery in 1798, and by the House of Lords in 1805. ' By statute of 39 & 40 Geo. m (1799), c. 98, known as the Thellusson Act or the Statute of Acbumulations, accumulation was forbidden beyond the life of the grantor (or testator), twenty-one years fi-om his death, and during the minority of any person living or in ventre sa mere at his death, or during the minority of any person who, under deed or will, would, if of full age, be entitled to the income." And such also is the law in most of the States; so that directions for accumulation beyond those limitations are void.^ SeeALiBNATio, Eel; Devise, Executory; PERPETUrrT.
