and Nancy Boswell of the same
place, Spinster

may the more speedily have their due effect, and that they may be able to procure
the same to be lawfully Solemnized, without publication of Banns, I do hereby, for
good causes, give and grant this License of Faculty, as well to them the said Par-

Provided always, that by reason of any Affinity, Consanguinity, Pre-contract, or any
other lawful cause, there be no legal impediment in this behalf, otherwise, if any
fraud shall appear to have been committed, at the time of granting this License,
either by false suggestions or concealment of the truth, that then this License shall
be null and void, to all intents and purposes whatsoever.

Hundred and Forty two and of Her Majesty's
Reign the sixth
