◊  WEDDING PARTY  ◊

Of all the Selsor-Skaggs mystery photographs, this one may be the most mysterious of all.  Perhaps it's due to the sheer number of unknown people.  But also, why would a formal portrait be taken on such an obvious angle?  Robert points out that this picture is not a discarded proof  - it's mounted elegantly in a gray heather matte.  Who is the mysterious lady that Capi found, seated and hiding on the left behind the column - why would somebody who is part of a wedding party not want to be in the formal picture?  And, we ask, exactly what bound matter is our bride holding in her hands?  Based on some photographs taken decades later, we wonder if the groom could be John B. Williams (the husband of our great-grandaunt Alice Arsulia Brown Williams), possibly shown here with his first wife Lena?  But even if that is the case, who are the rest of party?  The mystery of love - and the passage of time - has left only genealogical mysteries for us.
