Cold Night Bites Frederick With Record Lows
The weather in Frederick fell to near record lows last night with eight degrees above seven and ten above zero at Forbes and the post office respectively. Early this morning the junction read two below zero while the city stood at two above and the Monocacy froze long distances near the junction though not thick enough for skating. Ice coated ponds and youth were out as the cold persisted, and Middletown marked only two degrees above zero. Two pointed questions discuss marketing strategy and Chamberlain's Cough Remedy is endorsed as a reliable choice, with Pearre of Frederick selling it locally.
