The Rev. J. A. G. Ainley, Lon- don, said: "I have on one occa- sion conducted a marriage service
on
Good Friday (cries of "Ahare"). That may shock same of you, but that particular case occurred during the war, and i had not had the liberty to con- duct the service I should have had to refuse to marry a man who was going abroad at very short notice.
"There are a great number of cases like that. The Saturday before Easter Sunday is a very popular day with people for mar- riages. It is a part of their holl- day and the only time when they
kind can hope to get any
of
honeymoon at all..
To forbid them to marry on this day would be a real burden, if not an offence, to the lalty, who may not quite understand point of view about the solemnity of this season."
our
Canon F. N. Didsbury, Coven- try, said that this year there was a rush of weddings before April C. I began to inquire the rea- 501, and was told that these people were married before April 6 they would get income-tax allowance for the whole year. (Laughter).
"We should be extremely un- popular if we made a man pay a fine by way of income-tax for the whole year by refusing to marry him on a certain day."
Burial of unbaptised There'
was also a debate on whether a Minister, should refuse Christian burial to a person who had died unboptised. Canon R. W. Howard, Oxford, asited about the position of the victims when house collapsed, as one did re- cently in Swansca? Was the pricat to inquire whether they had all been baptised before granting Christian burial?
After supporting speeches from
both High Church and Low Church members, it was agreed that the words "has retused baptism" should be subsiltuted for "unbaptised" In the Canoti.
There was also a debate on the scattering of ashes after crema- ilon. It was agreed to delete part of a clause in the Canon which permitted scattering of ashes.
