¶2It is contended that the foregoing affidavit is bad, for want of a jurat, and 5 Ind. 109; 12 id. 551; Perk. Pr. 88; Bac. Abr., vol. 1, p. 99; Barb. Ch. Pr., vol. 1, p. 609; 8 Blackf. 133; Bonv. L. Dic.; and Tidd’s Pr., vol. 1, p. 499 are cited. We think the jurat and affidavit are combined in the same writing. The signature and seal of the notary apply to the jurat, to the certifying part of the writing signed by Block. Bloclds signature applies to the affidavit part.
¶3The judgment is affirmed, with costs.-
