The cold spell is at last broken, and it is

the roads were SO smooth with ice as to rem
der riding and driving quite difficult and
dangerous, and none but the most venture
some attempted to travel. There have been
4 number Of accidents, as usual. One OF
our farmers lost fine mule, which slipped
and fell on tine ice, gripping himself fatally.
Another neighbor, in attempting to cross
the river with his wagon loaded with grain,
broke through the ice and mired fast, but
afterwards succeeded in rescuing bis team,
though one OF the horses died from INF u

Again, young lady, while out riding
one day, rentured on the icy road, when
