City Hit By Another Heavy Snow Storm
A second major snowfall began around 12:15 AM and continued through the night, bringing about nine inches of accumulation. Rail service on the Hagerstown and Frederick line faced delays, with several cars derailing but quickly moved back. The Jefferson car partially derailed near East Patrick Street, stopping after striking an iron fence post. Cold conditions expected tonight with a warming trend tomorrow. County roads are in better condition than last year due to earlier freezing, and new road engineers may cut spring repair work.

Injunction Follows Burning of Car in Rigler Case
In Carroll County circuit court an injunction was filed to stop Frank E. Michael and his lawyers from pursuing a writ of attachment against the goods of William E. Rigler. The action stems from a sale of an automobile by Michael to Mrs. Rigler on October 26, 1920, which was later destroyed by fire. Michael was indicted by the grand jury over the alleged plot to burn the car to collect insurance, with Harry T. Frizzell testifying. The bill claims a note for 1550 and a confessed judgment were used to deprive Mrs. Rigler of funds from her late husband’s estate, leaving her with only 1286.38 after settlement.
