7/4/2021 11:28 AM This is a marriage document. There should be a second page, on which are listed two witnesses and the signatures of the groom, bride, and witnesses.

====================================================
The document is dated in Berlin on June 18th, 1908.

The groom was the traveling merchant Jakob Gehr, Jewish, born April 30th, 1870 in Pakosch, district Mogilno, living in Berlin, at Mendelssohnstrasse 15. He was the son of Master Butcher Ferdinand Gehr and his wife Dora nee Dehr, both deceased and last living in Pakosche.

The additional entry in the top right margin says that the wife of this marriage died on June 18th, 1940.
