Holding
The court held that a valid inter vivos trust was created by the combined effect of two instruments—a grant deed and a separate declaration of trust—despite neither document being fully sufficient on its own, and that the trust did not violate the statute of frauds, the rule against perpetuities, or the prohibition against restraints on alienation.
