McHenry residents are snug in their homes following floods in northern Illinois and the Fox river valley caused by swollen creeks and rivers after an all night rain Sunday night, continuing Monday morning. Because the ground was frozen, the water was not absorbed by the soil and ponds and running water was every where. Cold weather, however, Monday night changed the scene. Low ering temperatures turned rain into snow Tuesday with high winds bringing the first blizzard of the year. From 50 degrees above zero, Monday, the temperature dropped to around zero Tuesday night. Tuesday, Jan. 25, was one of outstanding importance, for two highly respected couples of this vicinity, Supervisor and Mrs. Stephen H. Freund and her brother and his sister, Mr. and Mrs. Henry J.
