If one of the parties was a minor, that is not old enough to marry without
parental permission, L.P.Given might mean Legal Permission Given or
something similar.
At one time I think that members of the regular army also needed permission
to marry. Whether that still applied in 1933 I don't know. Prisoners allowed
out of prison to marry might also need permission.
Unless of course there was an extra witness called L.P.Given
