The earliest snow fall in the recollection of the people of this seotion occurred Wednesday •bight about 11 o’clock when after a severe rain storm, the weather suddenly became cooler, and snow of about 1-4 of an inch in depth was preticipated. The Biorning sun soon melted the fall and a consequent mushy eond'tion of the streets resulted. This snow fall is believed to be the earliest in the season in the history of our county, so far as is known. It is believed that the conditions causing the snow were atmospheric, and not gen eral, although later reports maj tell a different story. ■ The manapemtnt of this bank hat. been directed entireiy to wards sound 1 anking principles.
