  	"These are to Give Notice to all persons Whome It may Concerne that Whereas I am Informed that Hopewell Hull hath VnLawfully taken to Wife the Daughter of John Martin of Woodbridge, Without Observing the Lawes and Customes of England Or these parts of America, I the Governor of this province doe declare that the Mariage & that all others that are or shall be Comitted In the same Manner to be null Void and of none Effect, And they that doe Live In that VnLawfull Estate of Matrimony May be Prossecuted as such as doe Live In the Estate of fornication, And that the Children begotten by them are to be accompted Bastards and not Capable of Inheritance. Given vndr my hand and Scale the 29th day of Decembr 1669."East Jersey Records, in office of the Secretary of State, at Trenton, Liber 3, p. 32. It is probable that Hull remarried his wife, Mary Martin, with all due ceremony, for John Martin, in his will, March 17, 1687-8, names his "son" Hopewell Hull as one of the overseers and assistants of his executrix.?E.
