Milford chronicle., 1926-01-01

Harry Quillen of Philadelphia Wis
tied his family during Christmas
week.
The experience that two of our
young men had on December 26 will
not be forgotten soon. They went to
see their girls, who live about so or
60 miles away. Bidding their girl
friends good night at creditable
hour they started for home. The
thermometer was dropping so close
to zero, the ice became so thick in
the radiator that the car refused to
move. They pushed her with all their
might, but like balky horse the car
refused to go. They made up their
minds they would spend the night in
the car. Finding the berth too cold
they decided a camp fire in the
woods would be better place to
spend the remainder of the night.
The fire was built and they waited
for daylight. Day came at last with
dark clouds and drifting snow. A
farm house was sighted through the
dismal swamp, to which they made
their way. The farmer directed them
to a garage. The manager of the
country garage worked with me-
chanical skill and soon had the
three, the two boys and their car on
the stove thawing out. The boys
were soon homeward bound. Arriv-
ing at their destination cold, hun
cry and sleepy at 1870 p. m. Decem-
ber 9th at Ocean View.
