NORWICH' BULLETIN, MONDAY, DECEMBER 27, 1915 What Is Qoing On Tonight BAD STORM SUNDAY. Many Discomforts Result from Snow, Wind and Sleet. ' The storm which had been prophe- sled for Christmas struck Willimantic late Saturday night, with a high wind and rain and sleet, turning to snow Sunday morning, and by noon all the essentlals of a blizzard were present. Telephone service began to suffer Sunday morning, and from all pros- pects the storm will be more severe than the recent one, which tied up traffic and wire facilities in most di- rections for several days. There was not a heavy fall of rain or snow, but the wind drove what there was about in the air and made walking anything but a pleasure, so that few were out except those who had something neces- | sary to do to take them about. The | weather caused a postponement of many plans for Sunday, and a small attendance at most of the church and | other celebrations of the day. By 3 o'clock in the afternoon, how- ever, the sun was shining and although there was still considerable wind, it tlooked as if the end of the disturb- jance might be in sight. CYCLERS DEFEAT W. H. S. Win, Christmas Night Basketball Game, 28 to 19—Fast and Furious Playing. The basketball game Christmas night between the Thread City Cy- clers and the Windham high school team was won bv the former by a score of 28 to 19. The game was fast and rough, although not intentionally so, and the players were frequently incapacitated for a few seconds. Read and Riley came together hard at one time, each receiving a severe cut over the eye, which required the services of a physician, who was in the hall, but they pluckily returned to the game. There was a good crowd on hand to witness the contest, in which there-was much rivalry, as most of the Cyclers were former plavers at the high school. FUNERA = William A. Lathrop. Mary E. widow of William A. Lath- rop, died early Sunday morning at the home of her daughter, Mrs. Georgé- C. Stanley, in Andover. Chronic nephri- tis was' the cause of death. She was born in South Coventry July 15, 1530, the daughter of Augustus and Clarissa. (Hunt) Clark. Besides Mrs. Stanley. she is survived by two children, Mrs. Alice Sweet of Denver, Col, and Ar- thur E. Lathrop of Simsbury, and a brother, George H. Clark of South Coventry. FEAST OF THE NATIVITY.
