Not only is the fact disclosed that
years ago It was much colder In Un
ion county than It Is now days, but
also that the county deed record book
was nyde a weather bureau record Is
the Interesting light thrown on what
Is almost ancient history In this
county. Yesterday W. T. Wright, the
pioneer of Union -was at the court
house and he "was reminded through
conversation about weather and rec
ords, that in 1S83 when he wa3 re
corder of conveyance and the court
house was at Union, he had made no
tations In the deed' book as to the
weather. S.'nce then other recorders
have been through the books time and
time again but It is doubtful If they
have seen these notations plain
enough when attention la called to
them. At least County Recorder Snook
has not seen them' during his career
in the office. The notations are' made
on the bottom of the page and might
easily be passed over unnoticed,
Wright I'laced Them There.
In the winter of 1883 Mr. Wright
won rjv; ri-qs 5izri"y:.IW
temperature was reached, he decided
to make official notations of them and
then In later years there would be ab
solute proof of what records had been
reached. He wrote It In the deed book1
and It is not likely that they have been
seen from that day to yesterday. Mr!
Wright knew Just where he had placed
them and a hasty research revealed
them readily enough. '
The notations made are? '.
