says In my message 10 the legislative assem-
bly' al ITS session IN ls'2. ! urged that body TO
enact a law upon the subject Of marriage but
| regret TO say that nothing was done. There l.
now no one in this territory authorized by law
10 unite persons in wedlock. That there should
be, Is apparent 10 all; and I recommend that an
ministers of the gospel, regularly ordained "a
such, and all judges Of the courts of record,
and all justices of the peace. be authorized by
law 10 pronounce the marriage ceremony. The
marriage relation lies at the foundation of all
good society, and 1 doubt not that YOU will
agree with me, that all rights incident to that
sacred relation should be clearly defined and
hInly established by plain and positive stat
ute, and hope that il will be done at this SEES
