summary
Including The Portland Transcript, 28th December, 1844, in which a description of a Jewish Wedding occurs: “Then came the closing scene, and all the men came forward and kissed the groom, which we thought looked a great deal like corn bread and johnnycake, for who would kiss a man when there was a lady in the room?” (p.102)
