- Newspaper clippings in the family album in the possession of Nancy Phillips Meadows:
Miss Estelle Marshall, who had been spending her vacation with her sister, Mrs. H. Fillmore Lankford (Ida Marshall Lankford), of this town, returned to St. Mary's City, St. Mary's County, Md., last week. She is one of the teachers in the St. Mary's Female Seminary.
Wedding 12 Dec 1894: One of the most beautiful weddings ever witnessed in Somerset county was solemnized in Manokin Presbyerian Church on last Wednesday at 1 o'clock P.M. The high contracting parties were Clarence Pinckard Lankford, Esq., a well known young lawyer of this county and Miss Emily Estelle Marshall, an equally well known young lady of Princess Anne. The church edifice had been most elegantly and tastefully dressed with evergreens, bright blooming flowers and rare and graceful trailing vines. Suspended from the ceiling, directly above the spot where the bride and groom stood during the ceremony, was a beautiful floral wedding bell, the handiwork of the loving hands of their mutual friend, Miss Emily D. Haines. An hour before the time fixed for the ceremony, witnesses began to file into the church and they were ushered to seats by Messrs. Robert F. Maddox of Princess Anne, Gordon Tull of Marion, Sydney N. Church of Crisfield and F. Eugene Walthen of Annapolis. Promptly at the hour set, the groom appeared at the door, leaning on the arm of his best man, Mr. Robert M. Duer. At the same time the bride appeared, leaning on the arm of her brother, Mr. Rush P. Marshall of Philadelphia. To the tune of the wedding march, played by Miss Handy at the organ, two of the ushers marched up the north aisle, preceding the groom and his best man, while the other two marched abreast of them up the south aisle, followed by the bridge beside her brother who gave her away later on. The bride and groom met beneath the wedding bell and, standing side by side, faced the minister, the Rev. Wm. H Logan, who at once united them in the indissoluble bonds for life. It was as pretty a sight as one generally witnesses--the beautiful, young bride, white as a lily, save where the carnations of pleasurable, happy excitement bloomed a little in either cheek, handsomely gowned, standing beside her stalwart choice for life, against a background of bright blooms and vivid, pure green banked in and entirely filling, the great recess behind the pulpit. There was not a hitch in the whole process. The bride was dressed in a gown of delicate blue French novelty cloth with blue trimmings and wore a hat to match. She carried a bouquet of La France roses. The groom was dressed in a long black cutaway coat with black vest and trousers. The best man and the ushers were dressed in black cutaway coats, black vests and lighter colored trousers. The bride and groom left after the ceremony on the Old Point Express for New York City from whence they will make a tour to other points for a couple of weeks. They have had many handsome and beautiful presents sent them from friends abroad in addition to the many given them by friends at their home in Somerset. When they have returned they will make their home in Crisfield.
