Thompson Pond in Oxford Tuesday,
going out with George Hazen in his

lots Of fun, particularly when the shower
struck. They were not far from the
shore and were about ready to come in
when the squall swept down on them.
In an instant the lake changed from
glass to a boiling surface. The water
came over the gunwale by pailfuls and
tubfuls, and almost put out the lire.

BY Mr.. Hazen that they were in no dan
ger, but they got pretty wet, and were
quite nervous for while.
