Marking of will
12 Marking of will
A will sought to be proved shall be marked by the signatures of the applicant and the person before whom his affidavit is sworn, and shall be exhibited to any affidavit that may be required under these rules as to the validity, terms, condition or date of execution of the will.
Where the Registrar is satisfied that compliance with this rule might result in the loss of the will, he may allow a photographic copy of the will to be marked or exhibited in lieu of the original document.
The signatures referred to in subrule (1) and any necessary exhibit note shall be endorsed on the cover of the will or on such other place where the signatures and exhibit note will not appear in any photographic reproduction of the will.
