Illusory appointment aet

The statute 1 Wm. I v. c. 46. This statute enacts that no appointment made after its passing, (July 16. 1830,) in exercise of a power to appoint property, real or personal, among several objects, shall be invalid, or impeached in equity, on the ground that an unsubstantial, illusory, or nominal share only was thereby appointed, or left unappointed, to devolve upon any one or more of the objects of such power; but that the appointment shall be valid In equity, as at law. See, too, 37 & 38 Viet, a 37. Wharton.
