Great Gypsy Camp in St Paul Draws Romany Tribes
The annual Romany reunion gathers 5 000 travelers in St Paul as gypsies from across the U S and Canada arrive for a historic western encampment. Marriage ties drive the event with elaborate customs, dowries, and household gifts while borders and law shape modern rites. About 25 000 gypsies live in the United States and 200 marriages are expected this season. The Deyo tians lead, followed by German Scotch and Irish tribes, with Isaac Wells as the sing of the gypsies. The home of the Dusted Gilates gypsies lies near Dayton Ohio.
