Zelma Knott, William Grissom Tie the Knot, Sept. 21, 1923

Knott-Grissom. . . An Impressive Court House Marriage

Twilight marriages in the court house are becoming fashionable. Last evening just as Mr. Charles G. Powell sat down to enjoy his evening meal with his family, the phone bell rang and the party at the other end of the wire requested him to come down to the Court House at once and issue a marriage license, the contracting parties being Miss Zelma Knott and Mr. William Grissom, both of Granville county. The ceremony was performed by Justice J.J. Medford in his usual impressive style.
