but all and every such grant, bargain and sale, feoffment, deed of conveyance, release, assignment, mortgage or other assurance, so made, executed and acknowledged, as aforesaid, shall be as good, valid and effectual in law for transferring, passing and conveying the estate, right, title and interest of such husband and wife of, in and to the lands, tenements and hereditaments mentioned in the same, as if all the requisites and particulars of such acknowledgment had been made according to law, and as if such trustee or attorney in fact had made the acknowledgment thereto in such capacity;
