Execution of a deed

Defined in 1 dictionary — Case Law

Definitions from Case Law

United States Supreme Court

The signing of a Deed is now the material part of the execution; the seal has become a mere form, and a written, or ink seal, as it is called, is good. Any Deed under seal, when proved, is proper to be given in evidence.
