It came to pass in the settlement of Kock on the 14th/26th of December 1895 at 1:00 PM that there appeared [before us] the rabbi of the Kock Regional Rabbinate Berek Wolf Rapoport together with Boruch Knopfer, a bachelor, age 19, son of the still-living Dawid and his wife Ruchla (nee Bulewaja [?]), the legally-married couple Knopfer, born and residing in the settlement Kamionka with his parents, and Masza Ajzenman, a single woman, age 18, daughter of the still-living Chaim and his wife Golda (nee Pozemczyk), the legally-married Ajzenmans, born and residing in the settlement of Kock with her parents and, in the presence of Moszek Kuznicki, synagogue sexton, age 64, and [?] BibuĊ‚a, tailor, age 57, both residents of the settlement of Kock, and stated that yesterday at 10:00 PM there was concluded a religious marriage between Boruch Knopfer and Masza Ajzenman. This marriage was preceded by three marriage banns announced on the 18th/30th of November, the 25th of November/7th of December and the 2nd/14th of December 1895 in the Kamionka and Kock Jewish synagogues. Consent for this marriage was expressed verbally by the parents of the groom-to-be and bride-to-be. The newlyweds stated that they had not concluded any prenuptial agreement. This document was read out to the petitioner and to the witnesses and then was duly signed by the rabbi and by us, the couple, the parents and the witnesses being illiterate.
[Signed in Russian:] Rabbi B.V. Rapoport
[Signed in Russian:] The Clerk of Civil Records [illegible signature]
