real property without the state. Certification of the acknowledgment or
proof of a writing, except a will, in the manner prescribed by law for
taking and certifying the acknowledgment or proof of a conveyance of

property, situated within another state, territory or jurisdiction of
the United States, which has been duly authenticated, according to the
laws of that state, territory or jurisdiction, so as to be read in
evidence in the courts thereof, is admissible in evidence in the state.
