Mr. and
Mrs. H. R. Otwell Celebrate Golden Wedding
A large number of gifts, bouquets, cards,
telegrams, and letters were received by Mr. and Mrs. W. F. Otwell
Monday, January 7th, congratulating them upon the occasion of
their fiftieth wedding anniversary. The occasion was celebrated by the
immediate family at a dinner given Sunday at the home of their son, Earl
V. Otwell in Sacramento. Mr. and Mrs. Otwell came here to reside in 1904
and have taken a keen interest in the affairs of Roseville which has
grown to be a city in the years since their arrival. Mrs. Otwell was a
charter member of the Women’s Improvement Club and also of the
Embroidery Club of Theiles Addition, the latter having the distinction
of being the oldest woman’s club in Roseville and still in existence
with Mrs. Otwell being the only charter member of it still here. Mrs. C.
H. Neely now of Vallejo and Mrs. Brand of Lodi are also charter members.
Mrs. Otwell is a wonderfully active woman for her age, doing all her own
work and taking a keen interest in church work. Mr. Otwell, who is
twelve years her senior, born in 1850, is also very much alive to all
the affairs of the day and is very fond of hunting in the deer season.
Both Mr. and Mrs. Otwell are natives of Wisconsin, he of Platterville
and she of Baraboo. They were married there in 1879 but left Wisconsin
in 1884. Mr. Otwell was a builder and contractor, working at his trade
in various places before coming here. He built and still owns a number
of houses in Roseville, also the Palace Store on Riverside Avenue which
he and Mrs. Otwell conducted until about four years ago. They are the
parents of four children, all living today: two daughters, Mrs. Daisy
Fowler and Mrs. Birdie Fowler, who reside with their husbands in the
Sierras out from Georgetown; and two sons, H. R. Otwell of Roseville and
Earl V. Otwell of Sacramento. Their three grandchildren are Audrey,
daughter of Mr. and Mrs. H. R. Otwell, and Jack and Kenneth, sons of
Earl V. Otwell. The elder Otwells spend most of their time now with
their son in Sacramento, making a home for him and his two boys since
the death a year or so ago of his wife. But they also keep their home
here at 200 Clinton Avenue, and it was here that on Monday they received
their many friends who called to extend to them their best wishes for a
continued useful and happy life. They were assisted in their reception
by Mr. and Mrs. G. C. Fowler of Georgetown. Gold coin from the children
and grandchildren were among the gifts received by the couple.

Wedding at Iowa Hill
The Catholic Church at Iowa Hill was filled last
Sunday with the youth and beauty and fashion of the town to witness the
marriage ceremony between Frank Hackman and Miss Phoebe
Sherritt, youngest daughter of W. C. Sherritt. The
impressive marriage services of the Roman Catholic Church were performed
by Father O'Donnell. The young and lovely bride was handsomely
appareled, her gentle head wreathed with orange blossoms and covered
with the traditional white veil. Her dress was of white pique of the
finest quality, the skirt and overshirt being trimmed with scarlet silk.
A beautiful sash of white silk occupied the place that rightfully
belonged to the bridegroom's arm. The bridesmaid, Miss Kitty Beck of
Colfax, was similarly attired, with the exception of the veil. The
bridegroom was elegantly attired and was supported by his groomsman,
Isaac Bare, who bore his honors with becoming fortitude and dignity.
After the ceremony was ended, the numerous friends of the high
contracting parties were cordially received and elegantly entertained at
the residence of the bride's parents. Prominent among those who tendered
their congratulations to the happy couple were J. E. Brown and lady, C.
P. Reno and lady, C. H. Little, Wm. Wiseley and lady, Dr. O. H.
Petterson and lady, John Butler and lady, J. Dunzweiler and lady, James
Murpny and lady, Wm. Van Vactor and lady, C. H. Chwob and lady, Mrs.
Isaac Smiley, Misses Cora Wheeler, Lottie Reno, Annie Murphy, Lizzie and
Sallie Entwistle, Mary Klein, Annie Hawkins, Clara Bisbee, Mary
Sullivan, and Mary Armstrong. [Placer Argus, Auburn, Saturday,

A Pleasant Wedding
In another column will be seen the notice of the
marriage of Prof. M. D. Buck and Miss Martha
Amos, which was solemnized at Napa City on the 26th ult.
by Bishop Andrews, President of the M. E. Conference, which was then
being held in that city. The happy young couple was until quite recently
engaged in teaching in the Napa Collegiate Institute. With the groom we
have not the pleasure of a personal acquaintance, but he is represented
as a handsome, talented, and noble-minded gentleman. He has lately
joined the ministry and, we perceive, has been appointed to a charge in
Sutter County. Miss Amos is one of the most amiable and accomplished
young ladies of our acquaintance and resided formerly at Dutch Flat in
this county. We tender our congratulations and wish the newly-wedded
pair a long continuance of their present happiness.

Orange Blossoms
We said last week that the local matrimonial
market was active. This week we take occasion to emphasize that remark.
In fact it is, as the stock sharps would say, “booming.” Since our last
issue there have been no less than three other weddings in Auburn. Henry
Woodin and Miss Effie Hunt led off,
being married Friday evening; but so quietly had arrangements been made,
that it was a complete surprise to most people to find that the twain
were made one. The ceremony was performed at the residence of Mr. and
Mrs. W. Hunt at the Station by Rev. Mr. Holbrook. The happy young couple
left early next morning by the lightning train for Sacramento to spend a
brief honeymoon, but as they have both been reported quite ill since, it
is very probable their stay in the capital city will be suddenly cut
short.
On Monday morning, bright and early, Miss
Lizzie Hoffman was married to Clarence
Stevens, our handsome young Deputy Sheriff and Jailer, by Rev. E. H.
King of Dutch Flat, formerly of Auburn, the ceremony in this case being
also solemnized at the residence of the bride’s parents. Almost
immediately after the knot was tied, they took their departure for
Sacramento and the Bay. The Argus acknowledges the
receipt of a liberal supply of wedding cake from Mr. and Mrs. Stevens.
To them, as also to Mr. and Mrs. Woodin, we extend our hearty
congratulations.
The third of these pleasant episodes for
the week, which it is our duty to record, is the marriage of Mr. Jacob
W. Bomboy of Last Chance and Mrs. A. R.
Arthur, a lady who arrived from the East on Thursday’s overland
train. They were married at Borland’s Hotel by Rev. Mr. Holbrook on
Thursday afternoon. There is just a flavor of romance about this match,
inasmuch as the now happily-united couple have been friends from the
days of their youth, if not of their childhood. And it rather adds to
the romance of the affair that within a few hours after the lady’s
arrival in California, she was married. Mr. Bomboy is a man who stands
deservedly high in the esteem of all who know him. For twenty or
twenty-five years, he has been a resident of this county. He is in
well-to-do circumstances, having considerable mining interests at Last
Chance where he resides. Mr. and Mrs. Bomboy left for their home at that
place last evening.
By the marriage of Mr. Allen
Bryant, the popular young dry-goods dealer of Colfax, we lose
another bachelor friend and the Colfax society of Flirts an enterprising
charter member. We had expected a set of appropriate resolutions of
regret from that body, but they have not yet come to hand. When the
society takes no formal notice of the marriage of Dick
Harris and Allen Bryant, they are sadly derelict in their duty. It
is about time it disbanded. Probably it will die a natural death soon
for want of members. But we begin to feel lonesome, all the same. We’ll
have to hunt around and see if we can’t find a girl that will have us.
That’s all. There must be some balm left in Gilead.

Married
In Auburn, April 21,
1879, by Rev. A. Holbrook, Mr. H. H.
Richmond of Michigan Bluff and Miss
Carrie Slade
of Auburn. This marriage is an auspicious and happy one, the groom is
well and very favorably known throughout the county as an efficient
public school teacher and also a popular and exemplary young man. The
bride is one of Auburn’s most prepossessing and amiable daughters. The
church was moderately well filled with the friends of the happy young
couple, who were married at the rather early hour of half past seven
o’clock in order that they might take their departure on the west-bound
overland train for San Francisco. The pulpit and altar railing were
neatly decorated for the occasion by a profusion of floral ornaments,
and Prof. Graham played the time-honored Wedding March as the wedding
party filed into the church—the bride accompanied by her mother and
leaning on the arm of her brother, Mr. Charles Slade, and the groom
escorting Miss Viola Rackliff who acted as bridesmaid. The nuptial knot
was effectually tied in short order, the responses being clearly and
spiritedly given. A brief season of osculation and congratulation
followed, and the party left for the depot, whence they took their
departure for a short honeymoon at San Francisco. The Argus has been the
recipient of a douceur in the shape of a large and handsome cake, in
return for which we tender our grateful thanks and best wishes.

In this column we
publish the announcement of the marriage of Mr.
Graham and Miss

ceremony was quite private, no one but the bride’s relatives and few
friends of the family being present—in all about a dozen. The nuptial
knot was tied early in the morning so as to allow the happy pair to take
the train for San Francisco, where they went to spend the honeymoon. We,
in common with other friends, tender our congratulations

him do his duty for his country, and for her patriotism and labors at
home for the success on the war. The bride has returned to her home in

Pretty Home Wedding
Here Wednesday Noon – Uniting the Lives of Miss Doris Lillian
Preskett and Lieut. Raleigh W. Terry
A very pretty
wedding was solemnized at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Ernest
Preskett, 118 Alta
Avenue in this city, at high noon on Wednesday, January 26, 1921, when
their only daughter, Doris Lillian,
became the bride of Lieut. Raleigh W. Terry
in the presence of relatives and a few intimate friends. It was one of
the prettiest weddings that have taken place in Roseville in many a day,
and the popularity of the bride and groom made it one of the most
important. The parlor in which the ceremony took place was decorated
with huge fern leaves, banked in riotous profusion along the walls and
in a graceful canopy under which stood the officiating clergyman, the
Rev. J. T. McGovern, pastor of the Episcopal Church of Loomis, the
beautiful and impressive Episcopal ring service being used. The bride
approached the altar on the arm of her father. Miss Grace Matteson of
Sacramento, a cousin of the bride, was bridesmaid, and Myron E. Lackey
was groomsman. The wedding march was rendered in a masterly manner by
Berry Boston, accompanied by Miss Mildred Butler on the piano. The bride
was a beautiful picture, attired in a gown of white mescaline trimmed
with delicate white lace, with silver lace sleeves and crowned with a
wreath of orange blossoms. She carried a shower bouquet of white roses
and lilies of the valley. Following the ceremony, Miss Mildred Butler
sang beautifully an appropriate song and rendered an equally appropriate
piano selection. After the usual congratulations and best wishes, a
bounteous buffet luncheon was served. Mr. and Mrs. Terry departed on an
afternoon train to pass a ten days’ honeymoon in Los Angeles and San
Diego, after which they will return to Roseville to take up their abode
in the Preskett home on Alta Avenue, Mr. and Mrs. Preskett having
decided to remove to Sacramento. Mrs. Terry was born in Sacramento but
has been a resident of Roseville nearly all of her life and is a young
lady whose friends are limited only by the circle of her acquaintance.
She graduated from the Roseville Grammar School and after very
creditably completing the course, graduated from the Roseville Union
High School with the class of 1917. Following her graduation from the
high school, she completed a course in the DuFour Secretarial School in
Sacramento and soon after accepted a position with the Roseville Banking
Company where she became an efficient and trusted employee. The groom, a
son of Mrs. Adelia Terry of this city, is also a member of one of our
oldest families. The Terrys, coming to California via the Isthmus route
in 1851, settled in El Dorado County where Lieut. Terry first saw the
light of day. He graduated from the Placer County High School at Auburn
and afterward entered the University of California where he was taking a
pharmaceutical course when war’s grim shadow enveloped the world. When
the call to America’s young manhood came, young Terry promptly
volunteered in the aviation corps, in which branch he attained such
proficiency that he was made an instructor and after the war was
mustered out with military honors with the rank of Lieutenant. After
being mustered out, he returned to Roseville where he now holds a
responsible position with the Pacific Fruit Express. He is a reputable
and worthy young man in every way deserving of the exemplary young lady
he has won for his life companion. [Roseville Tribune, Friday,
