WHEN. At which time, in wills, standing by itself unqualified and
unexplained, this is a word of condition denoting the time at which the gift
is to continence. 6 Ves. 243; 2 Meriv. 286.
2. The context of a will may show that the word when is to be applied
to the possession only, not to the vesting of a legacy; but to justify this
construction, there must be circumstances, or other expressions in the will,
showing such to have been the testator's intent. 7 Ves. 422; 9 Ves. 230
Coop. 145; 11 Ves. 489; 3; Bro. C. C. 471. For the effect of the word when
in contracts and in wills in the French law, see 6 Toull. n. 520.
