  1. (continued from previous page)
    Marriage Customs continued
    music. Towards morning the bridal party left for their new home. The bridegroom drove home and the rest of the cars followed. When he reached his home he carried the bride to his door and she stepped 3 times on the threshold.
    She was not to go home for one month lest some evil thing should happen her.
