Old residents of Kosciusko County today (Oct. 10) recalled the terrific snow storm which struck this vicinity 55 years ago Monday night, piling up snow four feet deep, which remained until April 18. Never within the memory of the oldest settler had there been such a winter like that of 1873 nor since. For 14 days after the storm broke never a sight of the sun reached the eyes of man. The thermometer dropped at periods during the winter to 40 degrees below zero and at one time stayed near that point continuously for six weeks.
