St. Louis Hospital Ass'n v. Wegman

| Mo. | Mar 15, 1855

Scott, Judge.

It appears that the testator’s- name was-signed to this will at his request. The case, then, is within the words of the statute. This subject was considered at the lasfc term of this court at Jefferson city, in tbe case of Northcutt v. Northcutt. It was there held that the cross could only be regarded as a signing within the statute, when 'that mark alone was used; that if, in addition to the cross, the name of the testator was subscribed, at his request, then it was a case within the statute. The other judges concurring, the judgment will be affirmed.
