The testator may keep the closed will in his possession or entrust it to the custody of a person in whom he has confidence, or deposit it in the hands of the authenticating notary for safe-keeping in his archives.
In the last case, the notary shall give a receipt to the testator, and shall enter in his protocol, in the margin or immediately after the copy of the memorandum of execution, that the will remains in his possession. Should the testator subsequently withdraw it, he shall sign a receipt immediately after said entry.
