It's OK. You just need to remember that XML includes not only element
but also text nodes.
For example if you have following XML
<doc>
<Signature1/>
<Signature2/>
</doc>
then you have 3 element nodes and 3 text nodes. If you remove, say,
<Signature1/>, the text nodes
around it stay. Thus you would have
<doc>
<Signature2/>
</doc>
If you want to remove this text node "\n " then you need to specify it
in the XPath expression but
actually there is no reason to do this.

It's an XPath expression and //dsig:Signature should do it
