Abstract

Testator, ill in a hospital, signed an instrument as his will in the presence of the attending physician and nurse, and requested them to sign as witnesses. For convenience they signed the instrument around a slight jog in the corridor on a table which was about 30 feet from the testator's bed and out of his sight. Thereafter he examined the signatures and expressed his approval. Held, that the witnesses signed in the presence of the testator as required by the Michigan statute. In re Lane's Estate, 265 Mich. 539, 251 N. W. 590 (1933).
