dower de la pluis beale
/dawar da la plyuw bel/ L. Fr. Dower of the fairest [part]. A species of ancient English dower, incident to the old tenures, where there was a guardian in chivalry, and the wife occupied lands of the heir as guardian in socage. If the wife brought a writ of dower against such guardian in chivalry, he might show this matter, and pray that the wife might be endowed de la plus belle of the tenement in socage. This kind of dower was abolished with the military tenures. 2 Bl.Comm. 132
