Mr. W. U. Reichert,
Detroit, Mich.
Sir:
I have received your letter of the 7th instant.
I am not aware of any law of the United States on the subject of "Marriage Intercession Officers." I am not informed whether there are any provisions in the State laws upon the subject.
Very respectfully,
A. T. Akerman,
Attorney General.
