MORTIFICATION7, Scotch8 law. This term is nearly synonymous with mortmain.

MORTMAIN. An unlawful alienation9 of lands, or tenements10 to any corporation, sole or aggregate11, ecclesiastical or temporal. These purchases having been chiefly made by religious houses, in consequence of which lands became perpetually inherent in one dead hand, this has occasioned the general appellation12 of mortmain to be applied13 to such alienations. 2 Bl. Com. 268; Co. Litt. 2 b; Ersk. Inst. B. 2, t. 4, s. 10; Barr. on the Stat. 27, 97.

2. Mortmain is also employed to designate all prohibitory laws, which limit, restrain, or annul14 gifts, grants, or devises of lands and other corporeal15 hereditaments to charitable uses. 2 Story, Eq. Jur. 1137, note 1. See Shelf. on Mortm. 2, 3.

MORTUARIES, Eng. law. These are a sort of ecclesiastical heriots, being a customary gift claimed by and due to the minister, in many parishes, on the death of the parishioner. 2 Bl. Com. 425.
