CAGRO v CAGRO - appellant argued that the will is fatally defective because its attestation clause is not signed

by the attesting witnesses.

- appellant is correct. The attestation clause is 'a memorandum of the facts attending the execution of the
will' required by law to be made by the attesting witnesses, and it must necessarily bear their signatures. An unsigned attestation clause cannot be considered as an act of the witnesses, since the omission of their signatures at the bottom thereof negatives their participation. - legal mandate that the will be signed on the left-hand margin of all its pages.

In re estate of WALTER NEUMARK -The document in question fulfills all the requirements of section 618 of the Code of Civil Procedure concerning the requisites to the due execution of a will in the Philippine Islands, with the sole exception that there is no formal attestation clause annexed to the will.

- Since Act No. 2645 went into effect, this court has uniformly held that there must be an attestation
clause and that it must express the material matters mentioned in the foregoing quotation with substantial accuracy. Appeal to probate the will was denied.
