Cape Fear River "Agin"
Pestilence And Reform

Fayetteville, July 25,-Every
big wave of reform or pestilence,
as the viewpoint may be, seems
to be accompanied by a freshet
in the Cape Fear river. Sher-
man was accompanied on his in
vasion of the section by a 55-foot
freshet which has since been
known as the Sherman freshet.
The sockless of 1895 saw the
populist freshet, which rose a
height of So feet. When North
Carolina went dry in 1908 the
Cape Fear went to Lebert Point,
a mile out of its banks, and reg
istered 67.7 feet of wetness.
When the nation went bone-dry
the Cape Fear again went on the
rampage, falling three feet short
|of the Sherman rise.
Wiley Davis, who has made a
pet of the river for many years.
has suggested that the present
|affair be called the "Bone-dry
freshet.
