But

THE COURT

decided that it was the intention of the testatrix that the plaintiff should be free after eight years’ service after her death; and that the term began to run from the time of her death, unless some cause should be shown for extending it for a further reasonable time; and that as more than eight years had elapsed between the death of the testatrix and the commencement of this action, the plaintiff is entitled to his freedom.
