any very serious damage had been

‘ sections of state roads he would beer
of it during the day. Early reports
have shown that the frost went down
live to sleeet, and in places this
unusual depth caused the rosdbed to
heave slightly. He. did not think the
storm of yesterday would result ln

hody of roads, although if the frost

event damage done to state roads
would bring no expense to towns as
