The weather Of 1910.

A correspondent asks us to reprint
the following from the Sunday Dis
patch of few years ago:
Birmingham. Twas the summer,
spring and autumn of the year 1916 so
cold that no grass, grain or vegetation
were produced. Is it true that there
was snow and frost at Intervals during
those seasons of that year2 Has there
been any year since, this century, that
has been so cold as the above men
toned? / of course allude to the
States of New Jersey and Pennsylva-
mia. Substantially, this question
must be answered in the affirmative.
In April, 1916, ice and snow destroyed
all the buds and almost every green
thing. In May buds and small fruit
were frozen upon the trees and bushes.
Corn was replanted two or three times
and very little of it came to perfection.
In June there were severe frosts
several times. Every green herb was
killed, vegetables of every kind much
injured and all kinds of fruit had pre-
viously been destroyed. On the 5th
of July there was ice as thick as win
dow-glass in Pennsylvania, New
Jersey and all states north and east of
them. Indian corn was chilled and
withered. The grass was so much in
jured by repeated frosts that the cat
tie would scarcely eat it. In the be-
ginning of August there was ice half
an inch thick. The corn was frozen
and rotted and every green thing was
destroyed. This was the case not only
in the United States but in Europe.
An English newspaper said: at will
ever be remembered by the present
generation that 1916 was the year in
which there was no summer

Runaway Accident at Wilcox.

Thursday, June % 1881, while out
driving on the pike east of Wilcox, be-
hind skittish team of young horses,
Mrs. Latta, daughter of Hon. J. L.
Brown, and child, Miss Loomis, and
Phin Ernhout's little girl, met with
an accident that under less favorable
circumstances might have proved fa-
tai to the entire party. While going
down long hill the horses became
frightened at some calves that jumped
up at the side of the road, and dashed
down the steep incline at fearful rate
of speed. The horses ran some dis
tance when the entire party were
thrown with great violence to the
ground. Continuing at full speed
they ran into the village of Wilcox
having only the forward wheels of the
buggy hitched to them. Their APP.
pearance created a wild excitement
among the people of the village who
rushed in great numbers in the direc-
ton the team came from expecting to
find the occupants of the buggy either
dashed to pieces or seriously injured.
On arriving at the scene of the disas =
ter a sad sight met the gaze of the on
lockers. Covered with blood and
dust and with clothes torn the ladies
sat on the ground half unconscious
trying to soothe Mrs. Latta's crying
child. The other child was twenty or
thirty feet away with no one to care fol
it. They were taken to the house Of
Mr., Brown where Drs. Straight and
Ernhout were at once summoned and
did all in their power to alleviate the
sufferings of the unfortunate ladie:
and children. Mrs. Latta was cut
about the head and face so as to be al
most unrecogniZahle, one knee badly
| injured and otherwise cut and bruised
| Her child had one leg broken, anC
severe cuts and bruises about the head
Miss Loomis had one ankle spraineC
besides being generally bruised anC
| hurt. The ErnhOut child was no
seriously injured but was shaken uI
and bruised in more or less painful
manner. The ladies were unconsciou.
for some time after being taken to tn,
house, and have no recollections O
anything that occurred beyond tn,
fact that the horses ran with break
neck speed down the hill. 1t appear
by pool of blood on the ground tha
Mrs. Latta lay stunned and bleeding
in an unconscious state for some tim,
a short distance from where the chilC
lay. Partly recovering conscious
ness, however, she, with true motherly
instruct crawled to her child and tried
to soothe its sufferings.
PETE,
