The suoW-Storm which blanketed Elcn-

with one of the heaviest SHOWS of the
winter. Locally, there has resulted
little damage or Inconvenience, and from
information gathered from the train dis
patchcrs Of tho railroads centerng here
last night, it had not seriously interfered
with traffic or travel in Virginia or n North
Carolina.
From Richmond to the border of the
North State the snow ranges from three
to tiye inches. Over the line 1t. IS much
heavier, and down near Charlotte and
and other towns in that territory IL mas
reached twelve and eighteen inches.
A coincidence which caused the atlzens
of Richmond to look with suspicion at
the heavens. when the storm of flakes
began yesterday, wasi tho recollection
that just three years ago to the day the
great blizzard was uShered in under
much the same lowering skies. Inc snow
began falling about o'clock, and by
noon covered the city two or three inches
deep.

The danger of any spread has sub
sided to some extent and the disease is
not so prominent as it was short time

much more unfavorable for building.

NEARLY A BLIZZARD.
The First Real Storm of the Season
Did Itself Proud.

| IF this had little more wind and a
little more snow it would be a regular
Kansas blizzard" said a man, Fri
| day, in speaking of the storm. 1t was
not so very bad but it will do very well
for a starter. There was a fairly good
wind and as the flakes were of that
hard penetrating quality is was not so
very pleasant facing the storm The
| morning trains came along all right
but there commenced to be trouble
| along in the afternoon. The west
bound were pretty nearly on time, but
the later east bound We're delayed
quite a bit as the storm was reported
as being much heavier along the coast
than in this section.
The wheels of the electrics began to
groan and whine early in the day and
it was necessary to run the pillow over
the line during the afternoon. The
regular trips were being made, how
ever, without much difficulty. The
road is now well equipped for snow
storms and can put up a stout fight
before closing up. Nothing but an ex-
traordinary storm can stop the cars
now.
Pillow trains were made up i'm the
Maine Central yard here during the
afternoon and some sent out while 9TH
ers were held in readiness as it looked
very much like a hard night along
about dark. If there is anything on the
face of the earth that an engineer likes
it is to be sent out on pillow train in
a storm like that of Friday. and you
would like it too, if you were i'm the

Waltham paper of recent date con-
tainS the following sketch of the late
Samuel E. Locke. a former resident Of
Hallowel! and the last Of. the family
of the late Samuel Locke, so long iden-
titled with Hallowell:
Tuesday, Nov. 25th, one of Waltham's
Oldest citizens crossed the River Of
Death and entered into the life beyond.
Samuel E. Locke. who has been grad
ually falling for many months, and
who at last had become practically
helpless did not long survive the death
of his wife. He was born in Hallowell,
Me-, Jan. Is, 1918. He learned the trade
of carpenter and when about % years
of age removed to Waltham. Aug. Is,
1874 he married Miss Harriet Fletcher.
and until her death about year ago
the two lived a happy and contented
life. Soon after coming to Waltham
he entered the employ Of the Boston
Manufacturing Co., remaining with
that corporation several years. The
Waltham Gas Co. commenced opera
tons in the fall of 1858. and for a few
months Mr.. Francis Pratt was in
charge as superintendent, but i'll health
compelled him to resign and Mr.. Locke
was appointed to succeed him. This
was probably in 1855, and Mr.. Locke
retained the position for over Is years.
After his resignation as superinten-
dent and the appointment Of his sue
cessor he formed business partner
ship with Mr.. Geo. Farwell as funeral
undertakers. continuing in that occu-
patton for several years. For long
time. however, he has not been en-
gagged in business, as age and increas-
ing infirmities prevented.
