An essential of a deed at common law and under some statutes, but disappearing from the requirement of the law with the expansion of literacy and the corresponding ability of a grantor to affix his own signature with legibility sufficient to authenticate the instrument as one representing his own act and deed.(Ballentine, 3rd ed., 1969, p. 1147) 1, record 1, English, - seal
