The lease was signed by the husband but was not signed by the wife. Failure of the wife to join and sign the lease made this ten year lease defective. See Richart v. Roper, 156 Fla. 822, 25 So.2d 80, 81. The lease was defective also because not witnessed as required by § 689.01 Fla.Stat., F.S.A.

Affirmed.
