Dispensation for Catholic Marriage

[Jenny M Benson]

When Sara Bloor married Norbert Leyland at St Oswald's Church, Liverpool
on 14 August 1920 (image at Ancestry) the priest wrote "disp. obt. <2
words or abbreviations> Rel." under the surnames in the left margin.

I know that the first two words mean a Dispensation was obtained, but
I'm not sure what the following 2 words are or what the whole phrase means.

Can anyone help, please?

Going backwards and forwards in the pages of the register I suspect
"mixta religio"

Similar dispensations are not uncommon in the register (and it 1922 I
noticed one where it is written in plain English)
