Hurton Hicks, an nounced yesterday. Judge Hicks says that several ^?ases of that nature have come bp fore him r^-ently and that he de sired to acquaint all persons contem plating marriage who are authorized to conduct a marriage ceremony wjth the provisions of the law. Confusion results when a couple who have given in their names in the probate judge's office, take the affi davit (ov the license to the tVertsur er's office to pay the fee and fail to return to his office for the license, which fa detached from the affidavit and held until it has been paid for, he said. Section r>r>2?'f of the Code of Laws of South Carolina, volume .'1 page 1038, regarding the marriage proced-, ure, as pointed out by John Hicks, is given as follows: ''License Required for Matrimony. It shall be unlawful for any person to contract matrimony within this state without first procuring a license as is hereinafter provided; and it shall likewise be unlawful for any one, whop)sOe veV.'tq pcrfn^t\^4.hu marriage c$J^uTi.vy.? ifoiwTny ?
