Cleburne, Texas, October lo.--Yesterday
Mr.. ~ l.. Poole, one of the old settlers
of Cleburne. said to a Post reporter that
the 9th of October. 1861, just thirty years
ago, he came to Cicburne and camped
near where w. r. Wells now lives. on
Mill street. A blue norther came up that
night and chilled him to the marrow. 1t
was the first experience he had with a
Texas norther. THE grasshoppers APP
peared that day" said he. They came
20 thick they obscured the sun. | have
never seen anything like 1t before or
since. Cleburne was then not year Old.
and was quite a border village, most of
the people living in log huts and some
IN tents The Cleburne House was then
a double log house. Today it is a three
story brick. When ! look upon this bust
ling city of 5000 population, with Its mag
nificent public buildings, fine homes, ele-
giant stores, and all the ccnveniences of
modern civilization. | can scarcely realize
1t as I in retrospect view the Cleburne of
thirty years ago. The change IL wonder
full. II having kept up with the progress
