May 5 Adam J. Krim/Martha Krim married at the house of brides father, M. Abraham Veeder. Witnesses: Abraham Veeder and family. $5.
NOTE: Page 382 of the original record has no writing upon it. A leaf, consisting of pages 383 and 384, has been torn out of the record. It is my opinion however, that none of the marriage record is missing. The Rev. Mr. Lodewick was a solvenly record keeper; and if he tore this page out, he probably did not know any better, and was too careless to notice that the pages were numbered. This same trick has been done to a page in the Minutes of the Consistory, between Dec. 16, 1872 and Dec. 27, 1872, when Lodewick was keeping the record. I attribute both these cases to the same fault--ignorance.

NOTE: It will be observed that the record of two marriages on the preceeding page, and three on this page, are marked thus &&. In each case, Mr. Lodewick has written in the spot indicated, a word which I do not understand. In Mr. Lodewick's best handwriting the word clearly appears to be "Surme".
