23 Feet High.
The deepest drift. it is said. was at
Main and Haviland street. It was
12 feet high. This drift was con-
ceded to be the deepest despite the
following item:
”Rev. B. A. Delano evidently ‘s
ambitious to excel in snow drifts.
He says there is one in front of his
house 25 feet deep. The ungodly
are yet to be heard from."
Another item states that "J. Don-
ovan started down the track this
morning to deliver some lager. He
got along very well till he reached
the switch house, when one of the
runners of the sleigh caught in
the track and it was upset. Jerry
and the beer wont out together."
Silas Gregory dug a tunnel from
his stable to the depot so that the
"dimcult task of traveling through
the snow drifts is obviated." ‘
Chief McGowan was busy making
preparations in case of fire. He ar-
ranged to have each marr take a
length of hose if a. tire should break
out.
E. O. Keeler’s house in Mott
avenue was blown over. Three days
later Mr. Kecler erected a sign in
the drift in front of the house bear-
ing the inscription: "house will re-
open July 1.”
Christian Swartz placed a sign out
in front of the Old Well Cigar com-
pany. which read: "Snow for sale.

House Loses Roof.
Another article reads: “Yesterday
afternoon the roof Was blown off the
house of the late \V’illiam Fahan
near Pine Island and has landed
near the Danbury and Nor-walk rail-
road tracks. The house was occu-
pied by Mr. Fahsn's sister and two

extinguished the fire in stoves.
l'l'he roof was taken of! en the

the news of the misfortune to the
[inmates of the house will be receiv-

ing day this item appeared:
"\Vhon the roof blew of! the late

'thc inmates of the building were
down stairs and knew nothing of
the accident until a neighbor came
and told them of it. I There is not a
sign to indicate that there was ever
a. roof on the house."
On March ‘14 appeared sn~item
as follows: "Theodore Knapp says
he went out to his chicken coop yes-
terday. and all he could see was a
row of chicken heads sticking up
out of the snow and that he took
hold of one to pull it out androur

were alive." ' .
It was also stated that the en-

were removing the snow by building
fires under it.

Years old, was at that time in the
employ of the New York Edison
company. and had spbnt the week-
end at the old \‘i’hitlock Academy in
“'ilton. where he formerly attended'
school.
“It began snowing Sunday after“
noon and the wind blew so hard‘ipr-
ing the night that the snow blew in
around the windows. Monday morn-
ing it was still snowing so hard it
was impossible to see even such
large objects as houses until one was
within a few feet of them. The snow
ivas so deep. especially in places
where it had drifted, that walking
was very difficult.
At Wilton
“I had intended to take an early
train back to New York Monday
morning. and so. in spite of the
storm. bundled up well and_started
to walk the mile to the ‘Vilton. rail-
road station. It took me over an
hour to get there. so that if the train
had been on time I should. have
missed it, or would have been hit
by it, as I walked the tracks from
Fitch's corner to.tne station. and
it would have been impossible be-
cause of the snow and wind to see
or hear the train until it was too
close to avoid since one” could not
move fast in the deep snow. When
I reached the station I found a. num-
ber of others gathered there waiting
for the train. which. according to a
telegraph message that had
reached the station, had left Dan-
bury at about the usual time. Af-
tcr waiting about two hours. I de-
cided to go back to the academy so
that I would not be made a prisoner
in the depot by the snow. Most of
the other persons _bad already gone.
I walked back down the tracks as
far as Fitch's corner. and bad Just
gotten off the tracks when I heard
a roar behind me. It was the train
plowing through the drifts and it
threw the snow aside as it passed.
covering me with it so that I lost my
bearings. and did not know in which
direction to try to make my way,
as the snow fell so fast that I could
not see far enough to locate any fa-
miliar landmarks. tunoenly. as I
floundered around in the drifts. I
felt myself sink in so that the snow
was over my head. I stood still for
a few minutes and tried to lan a
course of action. I knew the I was
near Fitch's house so I struggled out
of the drift. I followed the fence
and finally found the gate. then
making my way around numerous
obstructions. such as aces. I reached
the north side of the house at last.
and then dragged myself around
through the arbor and onto the back
porch. \Vhen the door was opened
to let me in. I fell into the room.
My kind friends there thawed me out
and revived me. and I soon decided
that I must hurry if I were to get
back to the academy. for the snow
was making very fast. I set out
again and managed to follow the
road back. It was late in the after-
noon beforc I reached the school.
This Out.
"The train which I tried to take
back to New York Monday morning.
March 12. finally beat its way to
about where the Pine Island ceme-
tery is. reaching there sometime in
the afternoon. It could go no fur-
ther. The people on the train were
without food. and had to sleep on
the train. Sometime during the
second day, South Norwaik people
minaged to dig their way to the
train. A few of‘the people were
taken from the train to near-by
houses. Others stayed on the train
until it was finally dug out and
moved to the-South Norwalk pas-
senger station the following Friday.
"I came down on Friday on the
first train through from Danbury.
I remember that “Washington abd
North Main street had been opened
so that a wagon could be driven‘
through. and the sidewalks. too. had
been shoveled. but the banks ho-
tweeh the sidewalks and the sires-ts
were so high that nnels wen- cu:

"It was aboutten days before mo

New York. and it was weeks before
some the streets here were open-
ed. e factories were closed for
about 3-week. At that time there
was a single-track horse car line be-
tween Norwalk and South Norwalk.
It was many days before this could
be used.
"The biggest drifts in this vicinity
were 80 feet deep by actual meas-
urements. This was north of the
Cannoadale Methodist church. The

WAEHINGTON. March iz.—-Ed-
vard ‘B. McLean. publisher of the

uestioning before the Oil commit-
ee today that he had told the truth
When he testified at Palm Beach that
he leaned A. B. Fall $100,000 in 1921.
in checks which afterward were re-
turied uncashed.
Although his bank balance did not
show that amount in deposits he
said his "credit was good" and that
Fall had agreed to notify him before
attempting to cash the checks. This
procedure he said Wm "not unusual"
and had nothing to do with the oil
leasing program. \Vhen he first or-
roneous informed the committee that
the loan had been made m cash he
said he did so because Fall requested
it at a conference they had in At-
lantic City last December.
' The publisher made no reference
to his previous conflicting testimony.
He‘ said under questioning that he
had searched everywhere for the stub
of the checks. He testified he had
given Fall but had been unable to
find them. '
"There aren't any and never were,
were there '.’" asked Sen. Walsh.
"Why, yes there are. Senator, to
the best of my recollection, as I told
Sou." the witness replied.
McLean said that at a conference
he had with Bill at Atlantic City;
last December Fall asked him if he
would say that he had loannd the
$100,000 in cash instead of in unused
checks.
“Fall assured me," he said. "that
the loan had nothing to do with
Sinclair and Tea Pot Dome."
McLean insisted that his credit
was good at the timcte gave Fall
the check and that hegcould have
raised $200,000 if necessary.
"None of any Character." Blt‘lfl‘nn
said when asked what service he
had rendered as a $1 a your s~ cut
agent of the Department of Justice.
The main purpose of his appoint-
ment. he said. was to enable him by
use of his badge to get through po-
lice lincs in “strange" cities when
traveling in Pres. Harding's party.
A. C. McchniL ‘chit-f doorkn‘ncl‘
at the “finite House. was questioned
about a telegram he sent to McLean
in Florida. informing him or Sic;

said McLean had askcd such a noti-
fication and that Sicmp had said it
would be alright to do so.

Chariti§ Department for last month
and he found that the reason it was
so high. was that $3,222.60 was paid
to the State Department for resi-
dents of this city in the various state
institutions. He said that there was
also a. bill of 8600 or $700 for re-
pairs at Naramake Home.
Councilman Riordan asked that a
committee be appointed to take
charge of the work at Calf Pasture
Beach Park. as it was getting near
summer and the work must be com-
pleted. He appointed the following
Committee with Councilman Riordan
as Chairman. Frizell. Pohlrnan and
Pugh.
The matter of laying the water
main from the harbor through
Washington street to the railroad
bridge was brought up by Mayor
Robins. He stated that the matter
had been investigated and that there
was some doubt about being able to
pump the water. without th aid.of
a stationary pump at the ock. as
the water could not be pumped
through_the water main, by the
pumper at the hydrant under the
bridge. He stated that this had been
verified by an engineer from the
Sesgrave company.
Fire Protection.
Councilman Benton asked if this
was not a Second District matter
and was informed by the Mayor that
mattcrs'of the Fire department'for
the protection of the city were not
district matters. Councilman Pohl-
man stated that he had been advised
by the secretary of the 'Fire Under-
writers’ asscciation. that if the like
amount of money was spent to in-
crease the size of the water mains
through the business section of the
city, the city would be better off. He
said that he took this for granted
that he meant that the citygwould
receive better rates if this plan was
carried out. The matter was laid on
brought up
again Monday when further infor-
mation is received. .
Councilman Pohlman brought up
the fact that there was the sum of
$99.06 due Morris Sloan in back
compensation. as he had not been
paid for 13 weeks. It was voted to
pay this.
Councilman Benton stated that the
police blotter seemed to be public
property. He said that he read an
item in The Hour telling of ”a burg-
lary and that it stated who was in-
vestigating the case. which he did
not think wal right. He said that
he bfleved such matters should be
kept under cover to some extent.
: -Milk Permits. '
Councilman Benton also spoke on
the matter of issuing milk permits.
He stated at the present time tem-
porary permits were issued by the
City Clerk and upon an inspection
by the milk inspector. a permanent
permit was issued if the dealer came
up to the standard. He said that he
thought that the dealer s id re-
ceive an order from the lk inspec~
for before he 5sppiied for a. permit
to the city clerk. _ '
