A 22 new: Photo/postcard size/portrait /black and white/ marriage

In Döttingen it was the custom on 1 May that there was a dance in the big room at the Bahnhof Hotel. I went there with to or three friends and was the only one who didn't have the heart to ask a woman to dance. When it came to the ladies' choice she asked me - and then in the end we married.
