The return types the minister as "Damon," as the Seattle Post-Intelligencer's notice of 7 Oct 1900 has him; the transcription of the certificate (Marriage certificate no. 4885, King County, Washington: Richard B. Holbrook and Jessie Clifford) reads "Dawson" and "Mrs. M. B. Frars." Harriet's maiden name was Low; Phillips was her middle name, and Richard gave it as her surname here, as the informant did on his death certificate in 1923.
