Berlin, N. c., March lion the night
of February q, 1902 the heaviest rain
known to old people fell in this county
and it was attended with heavy thunder
and lightning. 1t continued for about six
hours, causing one of the most destruc-
tive freshets ever known. The north fork
of New river at Berlin was twenty feet
above common water. All the fencing or
the streams was swept away and some
outbuldings, with hay stacks, corn and
rsssseh feed of different kinds. The lands
were greatly damaged all over the coun-
ty and mills were swept off and others
damaged badly. The roads are utterly
impossible The damage to the people
of Ashe county can scarcely be estimated
The lands are so badly damaged and the
roads that the lowest estimate / can
make is half a million dollars. There
will be much suffering and hard times in
Ashe. The lands had been frozen for
some time and We're completely thawed
which made them susceptible to washing
We have no stock law in the largest
half of Ashe and We need such law now
