attestation

attestation
The act of witnessing the actual execution of a paper and signing one's name as a witness to that fact. 23 Am J2d Deeds § 28; 57 Am J1st Wills § 283. It incurs the manual act of subscription as well as the mental act of observation. 57 Am J1st Wills § 283. Some authority draws a fine distinction between attestation and subscription, saying that attestation is the act of the senses, subscription is the act of the hand; that one is mental, the other mechanical. Swift v Wiley, 40 Ky (1 B Mon) 114, 117.
