shall or may be incurred or sustained by reason or on account of the non-payment or non-performance of the same respectively, or any act, matter, or thing whatsoever, touching or concerning the same respectively (h): PROVIDED ALSO, and it is hereby agreed and declared between and by the said parties to these presents, and the true intent and meaning of them and of these presents nevertheless further is, that it shall be lawful for the said A. B. and C.

(h) As to the intention and effect of this and the preceding covenant, see supra, p. 389, n. (7).

(i) In framing covenants relating to insurance of leasehold property, care must be taken that the stipulations are not repugnant to any covenants for insurance which are contained in the original lease. As for instance, if the covenant in the lease be to insure in the name of the lessor, it must not be stipulated that the mortgage insurance shall be in the name of the mortgagee, for if it were so, the mortgagor would be obliged to keep up two insurances instead of one. It is not right, however, for the mortgagee to rely on the covenant in the original lease; he should insist on having a covenant for insurance on which he can himself

MORTGAGE of FREEHOLDS and RENEWABLE
LEASEHOLDS-PROVISO for the REDUCTION of
INTEREST on regular Payment.

THIS INDENTURE, made &c. BETWEEN A.B., of &c., [mortgagor], of the first part; C. D., of &c., and E. F., of &c., [trustees for mortgagor], of the second part; and G. H., of &c., [mortgagee], of the third part: WHEREAS M. N., will devising in late of &c., being seised of or entitled to the capital messuage or mansion-house, pieces or parcels of land, and other hereditaments, hereinafter particularly mentioned, and intended to be hereby released, with the appurtenances, for an estate of inheritance in fee-simple, and being also

trust for mort

male.

Provision, that in mortgages by underlease the reversion shall be held after a sale in trust for purchasers.

(k) The last stipulation is inserted with a view to meet the objection alluded to, supra, p. 537, n. (a), The effect of the clause will be, that after a sale, the mortgagor will hold the reversion in trust for the purchaser, and may be compelled to assign it to him. It will be seen, that the possibility of the clause giving the mortgagee himself an interest in the reversion is expressly negatived, in order to prevent the application of the supposed doctrine of the Courts of Equity, that a cestui que trust of a lease might be compelled to take an assignment of the legal interest in the lease so as to subject him to the burden of the rent and covenants. (Lucas v. Comerford, 3 Bro. C. C. 166; S. C. 1 Ves. Jun. 235; and 8 Sim. 499; Flight v. Bentley, 7 Sim. 149; Jenkins v. Portman, 1 Keen, 435). But the expressions negativing this possibility were rather inserted from abundant caution than as being essential, and the cases referred to have been recently overruled. (Moores v. Choat, 8 Sim. 508).
