ascun

Updated: May 23, 2025

Spelman says, in defining an heirloom, that it may be "Omne utensil robustius;" which would exclude a necklace. In the "Termes de Ley," it is defined as "Ascun parcel des ustensiles." We are told in "Coke upon Littleton," that Crown jewels are heirlooms, which decision, as far as it goes, denies the right to other jewels.
