- (continued from previous page)It is the custom for the groom (when he's matchmaking) to have a bottle of whiskey in his pocket and treat the girl's father.
If the girl is pleased the fortune is fixed, and the day is fixed for them to get married. The wedding is held in the father home and then they go to the groom's home and have a big night dancing and singing. Then there comes a lot of young fellows dressed with straw on their heads and they won't go home until they get drink.- Collector
