§ 47-09-12 — Interpretation of descriptive words
If any instrument relating to real or personal property shall be executed by or to any person
as trustee, guardian, executor, administrator, or in any other representative capacity, and shall

such instrument shall be treated as surplusage and as description only of the person by whom
or to whom the instrument was executed.
