* ''Davis v. Laning'', 19 S.W. 846, [https://texaslegalguide.com/images/019_SW_846.pdf#page=1 846] (Tex. 1892) ("Attainders, outlawry, deprivation of property except by due process of law, and the corruption of blood or forfeiture of estate, as a result of conviction of crime, are expressly prohibited by the organic law. Const. art. 1, §§ 16, 19-21. Section 21 declares that . . . . This provision is invoked by the plaintiffs in error, but it aids their case no further than a declaration that a convict may either inherit himself or transmit inheritance. It does not attempt to determine at what time the descent of his estate shall be cast, but excludes this idea by the express regulation concerning the estates of suicides.") | * ''Davis v.
