FINE SLEIGHING. The snow storm of
Friday, Dec. y, brought as good sleighing
as could be asked for. The snow began
falling at d. m. and continued until 80 D.
m. when the skies cleared suddenly, and
the moon, which fulled the oath, came out
and shone brightly. During the entire
snow fall the wind was very light from the
northeast, and the snow lay perfectly even,
9 inches in depth, and was just damp
enough to make good sleighing Satur-
day the streets were alive with teams from
all parts of the surrounding country and
trade was brisk. Sundays rain storm has
left us with bare ground again.
