Margaret Bancroft read more of the
Iddings letters. They gave a stirring account
of events in the Civil War as seen in this
neighbourhood. They related a story of a
great flood on the Patuxent, "second only
to the great one recorded in the Bible". Another
of a dance broken up by a thunder
storm but failed to give the date. Alan
Farquahar said it was July 30th. As
there was no one old enough to re-
member that far back we shall have
to accept that date as authentic.

Meeting then adjourned
