ILLEGAL MARRIAGES.
Fourteen So1emnized in English
Churches Found to He Void
on Trivial Grounds.

It will come Is disagreeable shock
to any surviving couples who were
married in st. Johns old church,
Sleighs, in 1928, to learn that their
marriages were not legal, says the
London Daily Mail.
Such, however, is the startling fact,
and the remark applies not only to
this church but to 10 others, in all
of which marriages have taken place,
although they were not licensed for
the purpose.
Lord Belper has brought forward q
bill in parliament.
The chapelry of Ugglebarnby, in the
York diocese, possesses three of these
churches, two of which may be
called the patriarchs of illegal
marriages. The church of the
Ancient Chapelry of Ugglebarnby
has had no license since the date of it's
conservation. It's fellow-patriarch, ST.
Johns old church, also in the chapelry,
has had no license since 1927. The
other of the trio is ST. Johns new
church, in which illegal marriages
have only been performed since 1895.
At Cadney-cum-Howsham marriages
have been illegally performed in two
places-the parish room of Cadney
and the chapel of Howsham.
In the case of the parish church of
Llansaintffraid Cwmtoyddwr, of Cwm-
dauddwr, in the diocese of Radnor, it
has been ironically suggested that it
was deprived of it's license in 1865 be-
cause a marriage certificate bearing
the name of the church would have
been too unwieldy.
The number of marriages which have
taken place in the IA churches cannot
easily be discovered, but some idea of
the number may be gathered from the
fact that at ST. Andrews church, Dali
ton-le-Dale, between 800 and 400 have
been solemnized.
The other churches are New Bas-
ford church; Christ church, Bradford;
church of the new parish of the Lodge,
Salop; st. Helen's church, Ore; st. Sa-
viour's Ringley; st. Johns, Ipswich;
St. Peters, Woodmansey.
LII duultlOH " tueSe, the cHuTcu Ol
st. Mary, Greenhithe, has been used
as the parish church of the residents
of the two training ships lying off
Greenhithe. Before October II, 1899,
these residents did not belong to the
parish. The banns published and mar
riages solemnized before that date are
legalized by Lord Belper's bill.
Clause three of the bill freely for
gives all the ministers concerned, and
absolves them from any penalties in
Cured by them in connection with
these marriages.

Apologies to Mikado.

Fair Receipts.


The total number of admission tick
cts taken at the state fair during the
entire six days of it's session was 1885,
5s4, against 1876, 279 for the year 1900.
This number does not represent the
total number of persons who entered
the grounds, for there were many tick
cts issued for two persons. Every day
of the week beat the corresponding day
for last year.
When all the money is collected and
all expenses paid, there will be very
nice balance. The money will be used
in fitting up the grounds and increas-

years fair may be better and brighter
than the one just closed. The state

to expend portion of the surplus for
the erection of new sheep barns and
other improvements, which, it is ex-
pected, will be decided upon soon.
