The Town Hall after the Blizzard of 1888

The bright weather of Sunday morning March 11, 1888 soon turned to overcast with a light snow beginning at noon. At ten pm the heavy snowfall since known as the "Blizzard Of '88" began and continued all through the following Monday. The heavy blanket of snow which resulted, caused a temporary closing of schools and businesses and suspension of railroad and trolley service. Mail delievery was delayed for seventy eight hours.
