Translation of document

Can someone please help me translate this document, which I think relates to a marriage, but it's not in the usual format that I recognise. Thank you,

This appears to be a request made by the groom's parents to the notary of Barga, who personally knew them, for a dispensation to the impediment of article 59 #2 of the civil code for their young son, Pompeo Casci, born on Nov 7, 1861 in Tiglio of Barga, to marry the widow of their deceased son, Valentino Casci.

*The reason a dispensation was needed, not explained in the record you posted dated July 26, 1881, was that, when the son Valentino married this same woman, a kinship bond (or blood relationship) was established between her and her brother-in-law, Pompeo Casci, and they were considered related in the same collateral degree and the civil code prohibited, without dispensation, marriage between relatives in the same degree.

I just want to clarify that the document on the left of the first image you posted-which appears to be vertical and not horizontal, as it should be, is the actual dispensation document which was created in Rome on Aug 18, 1881. The other pages are primarily about the groom's parents giving their consent to the marriage of their "giovane" son-i.e., "young" son, whom I'm assuming is under age, to marry their former daughter-in-law, or his sister-in-law, the widow of their deceased son, or the groom's deceased brother. According to the 1865 civil code, a man could not contract marriage without the consent of his father and mother, if he wasn't yet 25. So I believe the use of the word "young" in the notary document indicates that the groom was a minor, and therefore needed parental consent to marry, which his parents gave him.
