The testing of a mutual contract bore these words, “In witness whereof these are written by A. B. servitor to the Laird of B. and subscribed by my hand at Edinburgh,” &c. The deed was signed by both parties. It was objected, that the word my did not apply particularly to either of the parties' subscriptions, and could not apply to both; which was urged as a nullity in the deed. The Lords repelled the objection.

 Fac. Coll.

*** This case is No. 315. p. 11644. voce Presumption.
