From Bouvier's Law Dictionary, Revised 6th Ed (1856) [bouvier]:

  DEDI, conveyancing. I have given. This word amounts to a warranty in law, 
  when it is in a deed; for example, if in a deed it be said, I have given, 
  &c., to A B, this is a warranty to him and his heirs. Brooke, Abr. 
  Guaranties, pl. 85. Yet the warranty wrought by this word is a special 
  warranty, and extendeth to the heirs of the feoffee during the life of the 
  donor only. Co. Litt. 884, b. Vide Concessi.
