Trains from the east and west remain late in Pendleton with the first through train from the east reaching at 9 o clock after days of slow movement. The fast mail on Sunday was delayed by snow drifts and a snow plow could have eased the stoppage. A jackrabbit on Alta street fled dogs pursuing it in long jumps as spectators watched the odd city intrusion.
