couples secured the necessary papers
permitting the marriage ceremony to
be lawfully performed. The number
thus issued is above the average for
this season of the year. The weekend
contributed largely to this increase,
as fourteen licenses were issued on
Saturday and eleven on Friday.
During the three days of the pres
ent month of December when this rec
ord was taken, the number of licenses
issued totaled 20. Last years total
for December was only 106, but the
December record was made in 1880,
when 131 couples were married. Dur
ing November, 1888, SO licenses were
issued, which was below the number
for the same month in 1882.
