noncorporate principal or surety shall be witnessed by two persons, who 
shall sign their names as witnesses, and include their addresses.
    (b) Witness for both principal and surety. When two persons signing 
as witnesses act for both principal and surety, they shall so indicate 
by stating on the bond ``as to both''.
