FRozE HANDS AND FEET.
Frightful Experience of Rural
Carrier Bump.

Tuesday was one of the worst days
in years i'll this section for people
whose duties exposed them to the
weather.
Probably the worst experience
befell Irwin Bump, carrier on r. F.
D. No. 2. The other five carriers
only made short portion of their
routes and gave up the terrible
task. Bump and his team foundered
through the drifts, and seven times
it became necessary for him to get
out and dig his team and sleigh out
of the snow. The wind blew a gale,
and the temperature at from to
below zero, chilled him to the bone.
He made nearly the entire route
before he gave up the struggle.
Both hands and both feet we're
frozen and today he can hardly walk.
He says that in four years and four
months of rural carrying, it was his
worst day.
