 "The second session of the court was held January 17, 1823, and the first business transacted, was the appointing of William Jones and Eli Cochran, commissioners to draft plans and specifications for a court house to be erected in the town of Wadesboro. The second entry on the record reads as follows:"It appearing that there are not a sufficient number of ministers of the gospel in the county to solemize the rites of matrimony, it is ordered that license be granted to Arthur H. Davis, Thomas Hill, JACOB ROWLAND and William Rowlett to perform the ceremony of Marriage."
