Medford
in 1886 The
survey for this directory was apparently taken sometime between
November 1885, when Ed Worman bought his livery stable, and late March
1886, when Kenney and Wolters dissolved their partnership.

McKenney's Pacific Coast Directory 1886-1887, page 1023 WORMAN & LYNCH,PROPRIETORS, Would respectfully inform the public that we have a fine stock of
Horses, Buggies and Carriages And we are prepared to
furnish our patrons and the public generally with fine Turnouts as can
be had on the Pacific Coast. Saddle horses hired to go to any part of
the county. Animals bought and sold. Horses broke to work single or
double. Horses boarded and the best of care bestowed upon them while in
our charge. A liberal share of the public patronage is solicited on
reasonable terms.

On last Sunday we had the pleasure of a brief sojourn in the prosperous
little city of Medford, where we met our old friends A. L. Johnson of
the Monitor; J. S. Howard,
who keeps a select stock of general merchandise; and J. C. Elder, who
apparently has surmounted his many misfortunes and is getting along
real well in the grocery business. We took dinner and supper at the
Riddle House, kept by J. B. Riddle, brother of our fellow townsman,
Hon. G. W. Riddle, and brother-in-law to Geo. Kitchen. This house is
simply elegant in its appointments, offering to its guests nothing but
the cleanest and best, and at reasonable prices. Mr. Riddle and his
estimable family undoubtedly understand their business, and the affable
Dave, whose other name is Crosby, the best and biggest-hearted boy in
the world, looks after every wish and desire of the traveler greatly to
one's comfort, for what is better when you are tired, cold or hungry
than to be met with every comfort you could wish. You find it at the
Riddle House.
