Summary
[edit]| Description |
English: in 1904, the mayor of Severance, Kansas announced that a "bachelor tax" would be imposed on all residents of his town who were not married by the end of the year. Here, E. A. Bushnell combines that with the tradition that, on February 29, women were "allowed" to propose marriage to men. |
