wards noon the intense cold abated and
the storm was more endurablc.
The amount of snow was not great
but the drifts were bad. The Garland

finding the Avenue road very badly bio
cked.
The Penopscot & Kcnnebec road was
promptly cleared of snow the morn
ing train from here reaching Waterville
only five minutes behind time.
But we had no mails last evening.
The storm was much heavier at the
west than here. as will be seen by the
