After the Christian sermon had ended this morning, the third call of the betrothed persons, Hans Ras van Angel Vrij, farmer here, and Catharina Ufftincx van Lubeeck, having passed without the slightest hindrance, according to Christian custom, and as nothing had happened to us that might have delayed or prevented them from fulfilling their intentions, the Council has understood, in accordance with the resolution of the 19th of last month in August, to allow the further solemnization of the marriage ceremony in the name of the Lord to proceed, and to that end it has also been approved, so that everything may proceed lawfully and in good order to God's greatest glory, the said solemnization (as well as no to have the minister administered by the Secretary of our Council for all the people in an open council chamber, as this was publicly and legally done and effectuated on the date after the reading of the sermon in the name of the Lord.
Thus done and resolved in the Fort of Good Hope on the date and year as above.
