Sears, with two pairs of oxen and a sled equally we'll loaded, made his appearance shortly after. Both teams did heroic service, and with the assistance of Harvey George and his snow blow, most of the streets in the immediate vicinity were made passa- ble before night, but 1t will be many days yet before the outlying roads will be in any condition for travel. One of the worst places to be made 80 that team could get through was the road from Mi- ner Fairman's up past the Charles Smith place. The average height of the drifts on this road is fully five feet, and 1t took three men four hours to dig so that a team could get from Mir. Smiths place down to the corner. Grant Hanna, who works in the Riverside mill and lives up above Staffordville, as late as last night had not then been heard from. Good judges estimate the fall of snow to be fully two feet on a level, and Archie Coo ley, who was at his fathers over Sunday and had to walk mile through the woods Monday, where there was no possible chance for the snow to drift, says that it was more than two feet.
