STORMY WEATHER By the OLD TIMER Well, I heard a real old timer say the other day that the tempestuous weather we are having this winter is nothing to compare with winters of early pioneer days, said he we dont have as much snow, it isnt as cold and we dont have the east winds, and so curiously while in Salt Lake City the other day I dropped in at the church historians office to see if I could find something in some old Deseret News papers that would bear out what1 this old gentleman had said. found and read again the escapade of Charles W.

It was fed by springs and flow'ed down through a natural valley spreading out and losing itself in the soil at the lower end o fthe valley. Because of the fertile soil and the abundance of moisture provided by the spring, grew vegetation luxuriantly along the course of the stream and at the lower end of the valley. The grass was green and luxuriant, there was an abundance of flowers and water plants and water cress. We used to go to the valley often during the summer to gather watercress. It was crisp and delicious. In the course of time an industry located in the upper end of the valley. The drainage from the Industry was contaminated with oil and chemicals that soon destroyed the beauty of the valley. First the flowers disappeared and the water plants and finally the grass. In time the little valley, lovely and beautiful before, became but a swamp filled with mire and only the rankest vegetation. As long as the pure, clean water was fed Into K. it was dean and beauti ful. but when the stream became polluted everything in it that ,was beautiful disappeared. As long as only good thoughts and good acts go into a life it is clean and beautiful, but when It becomes contaminated with evil and wrong, the good and the beautiful are crowded out Like the flowers and plants in the valley they wither and die.

While and when at the bottom of the mountain and also while ascending they heard the snow crack but paid no attention to the fact, but when King had got about 150 yards up the mountain the snow on which he was walking gave way and began to slide down, instead of waking toward the edge of the slide and getting off he bent his right foot under his body, thrust his left for ward and prepared for a ride his ax, down, steading himself in going down he gradually aank In the snow, when he got near the bottom he let go the ax and pitched forward on his face and then disappeared.

Rigby in book, East of Antelope Island, page 237. Briefly it reads: John Rigby one of Davis countys early settlers was living at south Farmington with his wife and a son of 15 months. The child being ill, Mr. Rigby loaded up a load of wood end went to Salt Lake City to get money to buy medicine and other supplies. On his way home he encountered one of those east winds for which Davis county is noted. In consequence of which he barely escaped with his life, on arriving at his home he was horrified to find that during his absence the east wind had blown the roof off his house, and sad to tell his wife with her child while trying to get to a neighbors home were blown into a fence and perished in the wind and snow. It is said that some times out of the very worst comes the best, and so it was with John Ribv, just three years after the tragic death of his wife and child, he married Lucy Ann Wright, a very prominent young lady of the community and to this couple was born one of the foremost families of the village, two boys and three girls.
