\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0“Abeyance, from the French\u00a0buyer<\/em>, to expect, is that which is in expectation, remembrance, and intendment of law. \u00a0By a principle of law, in every land there is a fee simple in somebody, or else it is in abeyance<\/em>; that is, though for the present it be in no man, yet it is in expectancy belonging to him that is next to enjoy the land.<\/span>”\u00a0<\/span><\/strong>[4]<\/span><\/p>\n
