Answer:
14 V.S.A. § 112 reads:
“A last will and testament executed without this state in the mode prescribed by the law, either of the place where executed or of the testator's domicile, shall be deemed to be legally executed and shall be of the same force and effect as if executed in the mode prescribed by the laws of this state, provided that such last will and testament is in writing and subscribed by the testator.”
