THE GREAT STORM

The storm which commenced here on
Thursday night of last week and ragged un
interruptedly until Sunday was the heaviest
and most destructive ever witnessed in this
section. The cold was unprecedented, the
thermometer getting below zere, Roads in
all parts of the county were blocked with
heavy snow drifts and all travel was vir
tually at a stand still. The storm appears
to have been equally severe throughout the
country, both north and south.
Reports from all parts of Maryland state
that the snow drifts have been unprece
dented in recent years. At Middletown
some houses were in snow banks up to the
caves. AT Frederick City there was win
ter tornado Saturday afternoon. Many
travellers suffered very much from cold and
hunger in snow. bound trains in Western
Maryland. In Howard, Hartford and Cecil
counties there was complete embargo on
the mails. The same is true Of the Eastern
Shore and Southern counties of the State.
In Talbot county there was great suffering
among the oystermen. 10 Kent county the
snow blockade was complete.
