Mrs. Virginia Kuhn and
Mrs. W.C. Hall started our Thursday morning in October’s bright blue weather for their annual visit to Charleston, W.Va. Imagine their dismay when the fall foliage was suddenly screened by snow flurries in the Alleghenies that increased to storm proportions.
They had neither snow tires nor chains and were forced to creep along at five and 10 miles an hour. There were many cars that were stalled completely in the snow which ranged from three and four inches there to 12 inches in other sections.
Their troubles were not over when they finally reached Charleston as there was a teacher’s convention and with the tourists being snowed in, all the hotels were filled. Finally a reservation was cancelled and they had a room. To top it all, the mercury plunged to 17 degrees to set a record for the lowest October temperature ever in Charleston.
Mr. and Mrs. George E. Muth entertained in their usual delightful manner at a Hunt Breakfast for members of the Rappahannock Hunt and additional guests at Stonehaven on Saturday, Oct. 27, following the initial Hunt of the season.
Culpeper-Rappahannock-W - arren Heart Council will meet at the Rappahannock Court House in Washington, Virginia at 7:30 p.m. on Tuesday, Nov. 13. Anyone interested in the work of the Virginia Heart Association is invited to attend. All members of the council are urged to attend.
