WILLS ACT 1837 - SECT 21

No alteration in a will after execution except in certain cases, shall have any effect, unless executed as a will.

21. No obliteration, interlineation, or other alteration made in any will
after the execution thereof shall be valid or have any effect, except so far
as the words or effect of the will before such alteration shall not be
apparent, unless such alteration shall be executed in like manner as
herein-before is required for the execution of the will; but the will, with
such alteration as part thereof, shall be deemed to be duly executed if the
signature of the testator and the subscription of the witnesses be made in the
margin or on some other part of the will opposite or near to such alteration,
or at the foot or end of or opposite to a memorandum referring to such
alteration, and written at the end or some other part of the will.
