What does it say about the groom?
In the last column of the last entry on the page, there's a remark that says something about the groom, but I can't figure out what:

Film # 008266195 Image 340 of 710 (Felsőlövő, Vas county, Hungary [now Oberschützen, Burgenland, Austria], Lutheran, marriages 1860 number 16)

item d?? Bräutigam ge?? ?? ....
[While I'm at it, what does it actually say where I've written "d~"? Between That Dratted Handwriting and the fact that high school German class was ::gulp:: over thirty years ago, I can't figure out which article it is.]

Great transcription, Julia! Just a couple of notes:
In the two columns that say "A. C." (possibly acatholica--i.e., not Catholic) it also says "ev." for "evangelisch" (Evangelical/Protestant). The d~ word in both cases is "des," meaning "of the [male]" (in this case, son/daughter of the male [father's name]). The "s" in "des" is the ending "s"; the connecting line is pretty faint in this image, but you can see it more clearly in the image at https://www.familysearch.org/wiki/en/Germany_Handwriting (it's the third "s" shown on that Wiki page). You might also find the German Paleography Series helpful.
"Idem" (same) in the second-to-last column indicates that the church official who performed the marriage was the same person as listed above--namely, Pastor Blochmann. In the last column (for notes), it says "item" (same--i.e., "dreimal proclamirt," meaning "proclaimed three times"), followed by "der Bräutigam gesetzlich vom Heerendienst befreit," meaning "the bridegroom is legally exempt from serving in the military."

A.C. is Augustine/Augsburg Confession, i.e. Lutheran; I just didn't bother deciphering the "e.v." (is that really what those scribbles are?), 'cause I know what it says without 'em. (In Hungary, A.C. contrasts with H.C. = Helvetic Confession, i.e. Calvinist; Dvorzsák says there were 27 of them in Felsőlövő, along with 135 Catholics.)
Thank you for the transcription and the Dratted Handwriting links. I've tried them all, and I have made some progress, but it's depressingly slow.
