NEWS FROM 100 YEARS AGO
Friday, 4-18-1919, The Otoe Union:
"Unadilla will be safe for ice if it keeps freezing like it has been."
The heavy rains washed out the approaches to many culverts and bridges,
making roads so impassable it was hard to get to town. Roy Wood installed
an electric light plant for Harvey West. There was still a lot of
corn shelling going on.
