If the testator has determined a reversionary heir for the time after the death of a descendant who at the time when the testamentary disposition is made has no descendants or of whom the testator does not know at this time that they have a descendant, then it is to be assumed that the reversionary heir is appointed only for the case where the descendant remains without issue.
