JUST 50
YEARS AGO.
Just fifty years ago the Willamette
had the largest flood in its history. On
the 8th of December, 1861 and follow-
ing days the river spread out. over the
entire country. At Albany It was so
deep that beats run all aloug First
street from the St. Charles. Since
then the street has been filled up
nearly two feet so allowance needs to
be made for that fact. The height
above low water is said to have been 38
feet. The closest to that since then
was 33.9 feet on Feb. 4, 1890,
Only on six occasions has the river been
known to reach as high as au icet, tne
others being Jan. 14, 1881, when it was
32 8; Jan. 15, 1901, 30.5 feot; Jan. 26,
1903,31 5 feet and Feb. 6,1907,30.8 feet
On the 12th of Dec. 1801,
