this was an entering

The bill requires a license to be
, taken out by those contracting
matrimony and if this license is
I not obtained the offenders are
subject to a fine of not more than
$100 nor less than $25 or im1
prisonment for not more than 30

court's fee at 25 cents, but this
was amended to $1 and the clerk
of court would receive a dollar
for recording the marriage and
issuing the license. The fines
imposed are to be turned over to
[the school fund. The committee
iamendment was adopted as
I "Provided, that nothing herein
contained shall render any marriage
illegal without the issuing
of a license."
The effect of the law should the
bill pass the house will be to stop
the numerous runaway marriages
and to have a record of all marriages.
It would be a criminal
offense for a preacher or law
officer to perform a ceremony
without the license. Once married,
however, the couple would
remain married, this being the
effect of the eommmittee amendment.

they will tell you in an advertisement

IN MEMORIAM.
Our society, Foreign Missionary, is
called to mourn the loss of one of its
most earnest members, therefore we
resolve:
1. That by the death of Mrs. Dora
McDowell Grier we have lost a faithful
i rni t i?
menu. i no ior years a suuerer, sne
never lost her interest in the Master's
work, and was ever in her place at the
meetings, when her health permitted.
2. Tnat her "patient continuance in
well doing," her unswerving devotion
to duty, and her gentle uncomplaining
spirit may serve as an inspiration ana
example for us all.
"I ask not, take away this weight of
care;
No, for that love 1 pray, that all can
bear.
And for the faith that whatsoe'er befall
Must needs be good, and for my profit
prove;
Since iroin my Father's hand most rich
in love
And from His bounteous hands it
cometh all."
3. Unit a copy of these resolutions
be sent to the family, be recorded in
our minutes, and sent to the Fort Mill
Times for publication.
