A Writing cannot be said to be a Deed, if it be not sealed, although it be written, and delivered, it is but an Escrowe.
And if it were sufficiently fealed, yet if the Print of the seale be utterly defaced the Deed is unsufficient; it is not my Deed.
It may not be pleaded, but it may be given in Evidence.
