On the wedding day of Princess Maria Vittoria and the Duke
D'Agosta, son of the king of Italy, on May 30, 1867 the
bride's wardrobe mistress hanged herself, the gamekeeper of
the royal palace cut his throat, and the colonel leading the
procession dropped dead of sunstroke. The best man shot
himself, the registrar had a fatal apoplectic stroke, the
stationmaster was run over by the honeymoon train and the
king's aide fell from his horse and was killed.
Now, I think I would have celebrated my anniversary on either May 29 or May 31. Or reconsidered my marriage.
