Excerpt from Studies of Family Life: A Contribution to Social Science

To die unmarried is considered one of the greatest calamities; consequently, there is scarce an instance of celibacy among laymen, and early marriages are the rule, and are entirely settled by the parents or elder brethren of the parties. Before marriage there is the greatest reserve between the sexes; and in the rural districts it is almost unheard of for a young girl to go astray.
