1983We have long recognized that "the learning in respect to the distinctions between reservations and exceptions is artificial and so apt not to be observed in the preparation of deeds that at this time the courts construe a reservation as an exception, and vice versa, in order to give effect to the obvious intention of the parties." Webb v. Jones , 163 Ala. 637 , 50 So. 887 , 888 (1909).

1993We find certain language in the Hoge dissent to be compelling: "Given their awareness of the presence of coalbed gas in the stratum, the earlier described similarities between coalbed gas and what has commonly been referred to as `natural gas', and the fact that the unrestricted term `gas' was employed in the reservation clause, we believe the plain meaning of the term `gas' would be too far subverted were we to exclude coalbed gas as a recoverable gas." 503 Pa. at 158 , 468 A.2d at 1389 (Flaherty, J., dissenting). [16] The other two cases involving coalbed methane are likewise distinguishable

[A] reservation is a clause in a deed whereby the grantor reserves some new thing to himself, issuing out of the thing granted, and not in esse before; but an exception is always of a part of the thing granted, or out of the general words or description in a grant.

1993It is my opinion that, at the time of the execution of the subject conveyance, coalbed methane gas was considered to be a part of the coal, and "[a]lthough the unrestricted term `gas' was used in the reservation clause, in light of the conditions existing at the time of its execution [I] find it inconceivable that the parties intended a reservation of all types of gas."

1982"In the instant case, this can be done by reading into the reservation clause a requirement of reasonableness, much as *1124 suggested by the court in Johnson v. Three Bays Property, supra. We hold, therefore, that the clause in the Declaration of Restrictions, which reserves to the owner `the right to alter, amend, repeal or modify these restrictions at any time in its sole discretion' is a valid clause so long as it is exercised in a reasonable manner as not to destroy the general scheme or plan of development."
