P. 37
This is not true with lawyers. We are taught to leave
absolutely nothing to chance. So we would say
something like the following:
“I hereby give, grant, bargain, sell, convey
and quitclaim all my right, title and interest
in and concerning this chattel, otherwise
known as an orange.
“Together with all the appurtenances thereto
of skin, pulp, pip, rind, seeds and juice,
for the use of the beneficiary, to himself
and his assigns, and personal representatives,
in fee simple forever.
“Free from all liens encumbrances, limitations,
restraints, easements, covenants, restrictions,
or conditions, of whatsoever kind or character,
and any and all prior conveyances, transfers,
deeds, or other documents now or to the
contrary notwithstanding.
“With full power to bite, cut, suck or otherwise
to use said orange, or otherwise to dispose
of the same, with or without its skin, pulp, pip,
rind, seeds or juice.”
