Chapter 23. AN ACT AUTHORIZING THE STATE SECRETARY TO AUTHORIZE THE SOLEMNIZATION OF A CERTAIN MARRIAGE. Whereas, The deferred operation of this act would tend to defeat its purpose, which is to immediately authorize the solemnization of a certain marriage, therefore it is hereby declared to be an emergency law, necessary for the immediate preservation of the public convenience. Be it enacted, etc., as follows.- Notwithstanding the provisions of section thirty-nine of chapter two hundred and seven of the General Laws, the state secretary may authorize in the manner set forth under said section thirty-nine, the solemnization of a marriage by Sheryl Hoseanopoulos in the city of Boston on May eighteenth, nineteen hundred and ninety-one between Steven Nevins and Lauren White, both of the town of Billerica, and the state secretary shall issue to said Sheryl Hoseanopoulos a certificate of such authorization. Approved April 26, 1991.
