Note 1325 — Chapter X · RISE OF CIVIL MARRIAGE
Reading edition
John Graunt, Natural and Political Observations (3d ed., Oxford, 1665), 158, 159 (Appendix). For calling my attention to this passage I am indebted to the kindness of Professor Charles H. Hull. In the "Introduction" to his edition of Petty's Economic Writings (Cambridge, 1899), I, xxxiv ff., lxxv ff., lxxx ff., may be found an account of Graunt's life and works.
