Hello @Richard Haycox,
Some added information about this record in addition to StH31's excellent translation:
gt = genannt = called; thus: Caspar Mues called Stratmann.
Both the groom and the bride are identified as single in this record (see columns 6 and 11); ledig = single.
Elisabeth Grewe worked until 11 November 1871 (St. Martin's Day) in Bracht. Here is the link for Bracht from Meyers Gazetteer: https://www.meyersgaz.org/place/10221037 Bracht is approximately 4 miles northwest of Kobbenrode.
At the time of this marriage, both of the bride's parents were dead. This is stated in the tenth column: "Die Eltern sind todt." = The parents are dead.
The officiating cleric was: Mönnichs, pastor.
Witnesses to the marriage were: the farmer [or innkeeper] Clemens Vogelheim and Gertrud Schulte, née Fischer, both in Cobbenrode.
