Destructibility & Merger Hypos

1. Grutz conveys "to B for life, then to C and his heirs."

Then C conveys his interest to B.

2. Grutz conveys "to Dr. Butcher for life, and if Cornelius Husker obtains a J.D., then to Husker and his heirs."

Now suppose Grutz subsequently conveys his Reversion to Dr. Butcher.


3. Grutz conveys "to B for life, then to B's surviving children, but if B dies without surviving children, then to C and his heirs."

What is the state of the title?

Can you guess what my next move is?
