  2. Title 22

Upon a trial for having, with an intent to cheat or defraud

another designedly, by any false pretense, obtained the signature of

any person to a written instrument, or having obtained from any

person any money, personal property or valuable thing, the defendant

cannot be convicted if the false pretense was expressed in language

unaccompanied by a false token or writing, unless the pretense, or

some note or memorandum thereof, be in writing either subscribed by,

or in the handwriting of the defendant, or unless the pretense be

proven by the testimony of two witnesses, or that of one witness and

corroborating circumstances. But this section does not apply to

prosecution for falsely representing or personating another, and in

such assumed character, marrying or receiving money or property.
