Led by Elkton's famed Marriage-Parlorist William ("Pop") Cann, Maryland's taxi-drivers had beaten a June 30 deadline on a new Maryland marriage law. Although this law, requiring a 48-hr. interim between applying for a license and being wed, took effect June 1, Maryland's Constitution permits the lifting and postponement of its laws by public petition within 30 days.
