[ Section 30.]
The governor may in his discretion designate a justice of the peace in each city and town and such further number, not exceeding one for every five thousand inhabitants of a city or town, as he considers expedient, to solemnize marriages, and may for cause at any time revoke such designation. [ Section 31.]
Every justice of the peace, minister, rabbi and clerk or keeper of the records of a meeting wherein marriages among Friends or Quakers are solem- nized shall make and keep a record of each marriage solemnized by him, or in such meeting, and of all facts relative to the marriage which are required to be recorded.

Each certificate and copy so returned shall contain a statement giving the place and date of marriage, attested by the signature of the person who solemnized the same or of said clerk or keeper of the records of a Friends or Quaker meeting. The person who solemnized the marriage shall add the title of the office by virtue of which the marriage was solemnized, as "justice of the peace", "minister of the gospel", "clergyman", "priest" or "rabbi", and his residence.
