Syllabus

<p>Accumulations.—Provisions of a Will for accumulations beyond the period of majority are in this case held void.</p> <p>Trusts.—The Power of Alienation is Suspended when trustees, acting within the exact limits of the powers granted them, uniting with the beneficiaries cannot convey the fee. Hence, if the power of alienation is, by the terms of a devise, so suspended that during lives in being at the inception of the trust a fee may not be conveyed by the trustees and the beneficiaries, then the trust must be held void.</p>
