This has truly been a remarkable season. lThe sununcroi 1997 had an abund- ance of rain, we were about to say too much rain. The craps in this vicinity are said to have been the best in forty years. The harvest was abundant, though there was some, difficulty in gettting it garnered The Fall was most desirable weather and when the Snow once came it re- mained the winter through. The whole winter was exceptionally mild. there being only about a week that might be called rough.colil weath- er, during; which the roads Were badly drifted. Taken all in all we believe this was the finest year ever experienced by the oldest inhabitants. The residents here know all about it but for the benefit of readers at a distance we take the liberty of this brief review. Contrast the winter here with that of Lake Tamiscamiug district. Mraand Mrs. Parker who ileft for there last fall. writing to one of our citizens. speak of the extreme cold. » The thermometer has been playing between forty and fifty de- grees below zero during the winter since Christmas. This in a degree of 'cold seldom. if ever. experienced here. Yet. like ail coid climates, the atmos- phere is dry and possesses a cheerful invigorating influence, rather than that freezing chilling sensation ex- perienced here at a much higher temperature. “ ON Saturday night last about half past ten, the sudden cry of Fire !. followed by the ringing of the fire? bell, startled the citizens, and got the Fire Brigade out, who in short order ascended the hill with the en- gine, to learn that the danger was past. It seems that owing to a de- "fective fluo, the residence of Mr. '1‘. Harris became ignited, and was just beginning to make good headway, when the alarm was given and a number of willing neighbors hastened] to the scene in time to prevent what might have been a. serious calamity, as the wind was high at the time. and adjoining pronerty would have been much endangered by :1 blaze. “ -fi“-v~ in suiting them with the latest novel- ties in head gear.
