If both transfers were gifts , the position would presumably be different ; the gift to B would leave A without any beneficial interest that he could give to C and , not being a ‘ purchaser , ’ C could not obtain priority by registration ; his legal interest , on his becoming the registered holder , would be subject to the prior equity of B. |
