It is a rule of law that an instrument shall be so construed that the whole ,
if possible ,
shall stand .
When a matter is written grammatically right ,
but it is unintelligible ,
and the whole makes nonsense ,
some words cannot be rejected to make sense of the rest ;

but when matter is nonsense by being contrary and repugnant to ,
some precedent sensible latter ,
such repugnant matter is rejected .

In pleading ,
when matter is nonsense by being contradictory and repugnant to something precedent ,
the precedent matter ,
which is sense ,
shall not be defeated by the repugnancy which follows ,
but that which is contradictory shall be rejected ;
as in ejectment where the declaration is of a demise on the second day of January ,
and that the defendant postea scilicet ,
on the first of January ,
ejected him ;
here the scilicet may be rejected as being expressly contrary to the postea and the precedent matter .
