Says the Hardwick Gazette:-
A funny incident occurred in Brattlboro
the other day when young couple
stepped into the town clerks office and
asked for license. The town clerk had
been issuing hunters licenses and took
it for granted that this was what was
wanted. He asked the color of the young
mans eyes and hair, his age, height and
nationality. Just as he was inquiring if
there were any distinctive marks upon
the person of the applicant, the young
man became suspicious and inquired
what kind of license he was receiving.
On being informed, he replied, ct don't
want a hunters license, want to get
married"
