1938.
Marriage
Arrangements.
1939.
Special
Licences.
Special
licences
are
dispensations
from
the
ordinary
rule,
under
which
marriages
can
only
take
place
canonically
in
the
parish
church,
or
other
places
duly
licensed
for
that
purpose.
They
can
only
be
obtained
from
the
Metropolitan
or
archbishop
of
the
province,
and
often
with
no
small
difficulty,
not
being
readily
granted;
and
when
obtained
the
fees
are
about
£50.
1940.
Common
Licences.
Common
Licences
enable
persons
of
full
age,
or
minors
with
consent
of
parents
or
guardians,
to
be
married
in
the
church
of
the
parish
in
which
one
of
them
has
resided
for
three
weeks.
They
are
procured
from
Doctors'
Commons,
or
from
any
surrogate,
at
the
cost
of
about
£2
10s.
1941.
Banns.
Banns
must
be
published
three
times
in
the
parish
church,
in
each
place
where
the
persons
concerned
reside.
The
clerk
is
applied
to
on
such
occasions;
his
fee
varies
from
1s.
6d.
upwards.
When
the
marriage
ceremony
is
over,
the
parties
repair
to
the
vestry,
and
enter
their
names
in
the
parish
registry.
The
registry
is
signed
by
the
clergyman
and
the
witnesses
present,
and
a
certificate
of
the
registry
is
given
to
the
bridegroom
if
desired.
The
charge
for
a
certificate
of
marriage
is
2s.
7d.,
including
the
penny
stamp
on
the
documents,
as
by
law
required,
and
the
clergyman's
fee
varies
according
to
circumstances.
The
clerk
will
at
all
times
give
information
thereupon;
and
it
is
best
for
a
friend
of
the
bridegroom
to
attend
to
the
pecuniary
arrangements.
