When made before a justice of the peace, it must be certified that such officer was a justice of the peace and that his attestation is genuine, by some judge of a court of record or a commissioner of said state; but, when made before either of the other officers specified, no other proof of the taking of such oath is necessary than the certificate of such officer.
