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

  IRREVOCABLE. That which cannot be revoked.
       2. A will may at all times be revoked by the same person who made it, 
  he having a disposing mind; but the moment the testator is rendered 
  incapable to make a will he can no longer revoke a former will, because he 
  wants a disposing mind. Letters of attorney are generally revocable; but 
  when made for a valuable consideration they become irrevocable. 7 Ves. jr.
