June days are stilt two months
away, but interest In weddings and
bribes Is paramount In Medford to
day. All because of the Intriguing
frocks, photographs and newspaper,
clippings brought to light by mem
bers of the Parent-Teacher associa
tion while planning for their "wed
ding gown" tea to be held at the
Colonial club Saturday.
And the groom's apparel, which
the modern society editor has let
slide Into newspaper extinction
through neglect of her pen, has re
turned to the spotlight via an article
from the Jacksonville Times of Oc
tober. 1881.
The article reports the wedding of
Ella Prim, daughter of the late Judge
and Mrs. P. P. Prim, to Charles
Nlckell, the first social event to oc
cur In the Presbyterian church of
Jacksonville, completion of whioh
was rushed for the affair.
"Mr. and Mrs. P. P. Prim request
the pleasure of your company at the
marriage of their daughter, Ella, to
Charles Nlckell. October 8. 1881, in
the Presbyterian church In Jackson
ville. Ceremony at eight o'clock.
Reception at family residence after
ceremony," the yellowed invitation
sent out In advance of the event
reads. It Is printed in the fanciest
lettering of the day.
The gown worn by the bride Is
now in the possession of the Nick ells'
youngest daughter, Mrs. Lewis Ul-j
tlVll. in 18 a Wpjf Ul UKC VIM) KViU
by Mrs. Rutherford B. Hayes on the
occasion of her marriage to Presi
dent Hayes.
It was made In San Francisco, and
the bride-to-be and her mother were
required to make frequent trips by
stage from Jacksonville to the bay
city for the fittings. Five days were
spent traveling to the city and five
on the return Journey.
Of the gown the newspaper report by
"Eleane" says: "The bride was dress
ed-in pllan and brocaded cream color
ed satin. Made sash basque with trim
med skirt and Rhlrred, square train,
fringsd with crepe ruchlngs." With
it went "elegant cascades" of cream
colored Spanish lace, with silk tas
sels and orange blossoms. "A mag
nificently embroidered" veil, looped
with orange blossoms, was worn with
the gown, as were 10-button cream
colored kid gloves and white kid san
dals. (The gown Is on display today
In Adrlenne's shop).
Then of the groom, the society
editor speaks. "The bridegroom wore
an elegant suit of black broadcloth.
Prince Albert style, with cream col
ored satin tie, kid gloves and button
hole bouquet of orange blossoms."
The ceremony was read by Rev.
M. A. Williams and following the
wedding the Prims' "elegant house
was ablaze with light and the spa
cious parlors magnificently decorat
ed" with evergreens, autumn leaves
and "most rare and beauteous blos
soms." The article also mentions that the
groom "Is the editor and proprietor
of the Jacksonville Times."
The following day the newspaper
ran a list of the gifts received by
the bride, with the names of the
givers.
In J. Verne Shangle's display win
dow today there are found further
evidences of the Interest aroused in
wedding news of other days. Pic
tures of the first white couple mar
ried in Jackson county, Mr. and Mrs.
Nathaniel Dean, are there. The date
was November 1, 1852. Their young
est daughter and husband. Mr. and
Mrs. Ed Farra of Central Point, are
also shown In wedding attire. Pic

and her bridesmaid, and of Kate
Dorwln Lockland in a gown pt the
same period, were also drawing much
attention to the display this morning.
