Snow Storm Tuesday, Oct. 14,1913. 
LEE'S CORNER, MANCHESTER, OCT. 15, 1876 
The bad weather of the last month 
came to a climax Tuesday when a 
genuine snow storm prevailed all 
along the coast. Many North Shore 
people who have delayed their return 
to the city were given an opportunity 
of seeing the resort in a mantle of 
snow for the first time in their ex- 
perience. Not for fifteen years has 
there been snow so early in the sea- 
son. In 1898 there was a_ snow 
storm on October 11. 
Old residents say the storm Tues- 
day—Oct. 14—1is an indication of a 
severe winter. Not since 1876 do 
they recall a storm of such  propor- 
tions so early in the month. That 
year on the 15th of October there 
was a snow storm that destroyed 
fruit and trees and laid the founda- 
tion for a snow surface that lasted all 
winter. In fact there was snow on 
the ground for too days and sleighing 
was possible practically all of that 
period. ‘The outer harbor was frozen 
that winter so that people could walk 
on the ice to the islands in the har-

bor, and part way out to Baker’s Is- 
land. 
The snow this week, being wet and 
sticky, loaded down the trees and 
shrubbery, many of which have not 
yet lost this foliage, and on the whole 
made a pretty sight. 
The picture printed with’ this arti- 
cle shows what is now so well known 
as Lee’s Corner, in the square at 
Manchester. The picture was taken 
37 years ago last Wednesday,—just 
one day over 37 years from the snow 
storm of this week. At that time a 
beautiful pear orchard occupied the 
spot where the drug store building is 
now located. Though a little indis- 
tinct, one may observe the pear trees, 
still loaded with fruit, laden down 
with the snow. Fortunately props 
had been placed under some of the 
heavilly laden trees, so that when the 
snow came the trees were not broken. 
The picture shows the School street 
side of the corner. 
The building shown in the picture 
is that owned by the late Claudius 
Hoyt, still occupied by Dr. Hoyt and 
family, 
THIEVES ENTERED BAKE SHOP 
Sometime last Sunday night or 
early Monday morning thieves enter- 
ed Bullock’s Bakery, Washington 
street, gaining entrance through an 
unfastened window. Some pennies 
in the cash drawer—4a1_ in number— 
were stolen and some pastry was also 
taken. It is thought the work was 
' that of amateurs. probably some boys.
