Opinion
The deed of James Scott vests in the trustee an absolute title in the slave Jacob, for the separate use of Mrs. McCullough. The words “ heirs of her body,” where they occur in the deed, are words of limitation, and not of purchase.—See the authorities collected in Shepherd’s Digest, 535-6.
The decree pf the chancellor is affirmed.
