Wheatley's Harrowing Winter Drive For Wheat Load
John Wheatley, a farmer near Athens, braved a December blizzard to return home with a load of wheat. The roads were mud, mortar, and slush, wrecking his wagon and leaving him three miles from the station. He repaired, then pushed on, reaching home at five in the morning before dawn, vowing to wait for spring when roads improve and wheat prices rise.
