1 word too many or one word missing Explanation: I think the sentence is missing something or has a word too many. I see two possible versions: I, ..., Marriage Officer hereby certify taht on the .... of ...., .... and ... appeared before me and that each of them, in my presence and in the presence of three witnesses, have signed hereunder the declarations required by section 11 and that a marriage under this Act was solemnized between them in my presence. A comma after 'witnesses' and striking out 'who' would make sense. I, ..., Marriage Officer hereby certify taht on the .... of ...., .... and ... appeared before me and that each of them, in my presence and in the presence of three witnesses who have signed hereunder, "signed" the declarations required by section 11 and that a marriage under this Act was solemnized between them in my presence. Comma after hereunder and inserting a 'missing' verb. |

... and ... Explanation: It refers to the parties you have in the ... and ... If they are the witnesses then the sentence makes absolutely no sense because it mentions the witnesses in two part of the same sentence as if they were different people. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 15 mins (2006-12-02 07:42:51 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- it is obvious that the 'who' should not be there, since the ... and ... signed for the marriage to be entered into. Furthermore, if the 'who' referred to the witnesses then the marriage "solemnized" would be between the witnesses - impossible |
