The Fate of Wedding Presents and Basque People
A British journal discusses wedding present practices in England and America, noting a thriving New York trade in buying and exchanging gifts, then describes Basque people of Spain and France with detailed customs, dress, and social structure, including patriarchal villages, alcaldes, Catholic devotion, and pride in regional identity. A letter from Louiss Michuel, Paris exile, complains about partial amnesty in New Caledonia.
