Catholic Marriages.
AN IMPORTANT DECREE
(By Telegraph—Press Association.)
LONDON, Yesterday,
Reuter’s Agency asserts that the Roman Catholic Congregation of Council has issued a decree radically changing the conditions of Roman Catholic marriages. ,In future these will be invalid everywhere unless celebrated in the presence of a priest and two witnesses, except in districts without a priest for a whole month, when Catholics shall be regarded as validly married if they express their consent in the presence of two witnesses. The new law will come into operation next Easter.
