THE KERVAN CO., ns w. mhk, new york 



fcrcd a loss of about $2,000, due to the 

 flood. The river, because of the heavy 

 rain and ice .iam^ went over the banks, 

 80 this establishment was about eighteen 

 iiifhes under water. The boiler pits were 

 filled and the fires were ])ut out. Tlie 

 water was over all the heating j)ipes and 

 went above the solid benches. This com- 

 pletely ruined the whole crop of snap- 

 dragons, daisies and other s])ring flowers 

 that were coming into bloom. The com- 

 pany also lost many plants that were in 

 bloom. The thermometer was around 

 the freezing point and a great number of 



oil lamps and charcoal stoves were used, 

 which saved most of the bedding stock. 



The William Eschrich place also suf- 

 fered considerable damage, both in the 

 greenhouses and nurseries. A great 

 many of the young evergreen trees and 

 many ornamental shrubs on the exten- 

 sive grounds were partly under water. 

 These were later frozen in the solid ice, 

 with the result that the stock was 

 broken up and badly damaged. 



.1. H. Dale and daughter, of Hough- 

 ton, Mich., were in the city several days, 

 being forced to stay here on account of 



there being no train service to the north.

 nue florist, is redecorating the interior
