Hicks Almanac gave timely warning.
For over two years prior to 1911, the
Hicks Almanac again sounded warn

years this same friend of all the people
has steadfastly refused the offers OF
spectators and continued to warn the
public of the coming dangers of storm
and weather. As they should have done
the people have nobly stood by Profess
SIR Hicks, their faithful public servant,
who has grown old in their service.
