SNOW STORM
Twice As Much As Expected
No FataIiSmS

They was a awful wind and snow
storm passed over Bingville on a Wed
nesday last, the memry Of wIch viii SO
down as a awful uitemare 10 look back
on by most OF our respectful citizens.
We can't remember when we had sich
q storm ln our midst unless II was so
far back that we have 10 TeckolIeckshion
OF IT, They was much damage did and
not to say ennvtEink erb0ut the awful
nervous sprain wich everybuddy in Bing-
Vile underwent while it lasted.
The storm came Up very suddint erbout
1880 p. Y It begin with a turr.ble
high wind wich tore the roof often Cy
Hoskins' buggy shed and carried Il siam
bang ND agin Ame HillyeTs law offs and
busted all his winders besides hittin Anne
a clip with a projeCtin beam that nocked
all the law oUten him for the rest 0f the
week Liman Peterson was blowed often
Snake Bend Creek bridge and lost his
new cap wich ne Jest purchased from
Hen Weathersbv and hurt his shoulder
50 bad that he won't be able 10 DO emmy
think but eat and smoke the rest OF the
winter AIelancthOn Skinner tTyed 10 Sit
In Bill Hepburn's blacksmith shop durin
the height Of the blow, and being as
he amt very strong on his legs he was
blowed right often them clean under the
east side of the shop and layed there I'LL
Bill puld him I'D thru the sCuttie hold.
AS Sally Hoskins left Hen Weathers-
bys. where she had Just purchast some
dried herring and O. spool Of thread. the
wind blowd her skirts and umbrella in
sich q ridicIllus manner that everybuddy
in Hens and Harvey Illnesses barber
shop watched and waited for the worst
10 happen-but It didn't and sally reached
home with only a shoe string united and
her hat tilted down over one eye.
Soon as the wind went down a little
mite il commenced 10 snow, and come
down so thick you couldn't see acrost
the street. BY 2 80 P. N, they was enuf
snow for the biggest sled In Bingville to
haul load on and still it showed. When
Hen turned the lights out on the boys
piayin checkers at S 8:18 they was three
feet and haff on the ground and more
comm.
Thursday mOTnin when our respectful
citizens woke up they found the snow
had turned to rain and them as had gum
boots had 10 wade purity nigh TO the tops
OF them 10 feed the cattle and other live
stock. Il Goodkins started from HIS
house 70 his barn keepin holt OF his wife:
clothes line and as he slept into a post
hole (wlch he dug this fal and never
put the post IN the line broke and he
wallered round quite spell before ht
could git out Of the hole and back TO the
house, and now he's got a turrible cold
Iii Cranky went TO his barn on his sor
Peleg's stills, and sed they beat emmy
boots he ever seed. Jasper Hawkins tried
to Jump from his hack piazza to his woot
shed and landed a foot short OF the doc,
in two feet OF water and he expeeks e
be sick sooner or later for u.
They was several other disasters hap
end, but we aint got space in this issu,
of the Bugle 10 enumerate them, Suffice
to say 1t was awful turrible storm
and We sincerely believe we voice TIT
sentiment Of the entire community wheI
we say that we hope sich a storm won
happen again soon.

In tryin 10 think up a subject for
editorial for this weeks Bugle as fol-
lers, II occurred to US why wouldn't It
be a good idee to agitate some plan and

snow storm, so that our citizens can
walk 10 the So once in a while without

It too. some OF our old inhabitants hat
to stay al home or when they do go
out they halter rest every few rods 10
git their bTcths after WadIn almost up
to their necks in the snow from their
homes to the square
We think this is q tuTrIblc good idee,
if we did think It up ourselfs and we
hope the Board of Trade and the Board

We spoke with Anne Hitler our no
tarv public and J. of p. erbout il, and
Anne sed he was willing 70 pick it right
up IL the town of Bingville wanted the
sidewalks shoyeled and he would have
ennybuddy that lawed agin it jerked
right up before him and fined for con-
tempt of court and make the prisoner
pay a fine and shovel off his sidewalk
to boot. Seth Dewberry, our lion
hearted constable, sed he would a rest
ennybuddy whot refused to shovel, on
the ground that the snow on the side
walks interfered with a officer doin
his duty in runnin down burglars and
other desperate characters.

this Is the expresshion OF only mighty

of Bingvile. and we hope our citizens
will take some ackshion before the snow
