Blizzard Clutch A Farmer’s Courage During Snow Storm

In Uxsamner North Dakota February 16 a blizzard traps a farmer, his wife and son as wind and snow seal barns and sheds. They herd cattle and sheep to safety, digging through walls of snow to reach feed, rescue animals, and survive the night in a house buried by snow. Three fourths of 200 sheep survive despite heavy losses and the horses perish.

Out of Sight and Oddities in a Maritime Page

A garbled naval sketch features Bil Barnacle arguing with an ice park officer about “submarine behemoths” and a harbor inspection. It shifts to dialect tales about a mule and other quips, including humorous lines on bachelor life and ancient geometry, from the Detroit Journal and Chicago Tribune.

Passing the Word on a Storied Lake Erie Gale

A first person recollection recalls a November voyage from Michigan to Buffalo with a tow of four barges. The storm battered the treacherous Lake Erie approaching Long Point. the Betts sank but the Norris and Norris line survived with the crew and cook aboard. The Irishman, Frenchman, and Swede exchange calls as the Betts founders, yet no one dies as tugs manage a rescue and the ship reaches Buffalo by morning.
