part of the Journey brought them to

Heavy Rain
and Hail Hits
at Noon Hour
Torrential Rainfall South of City
Erings Flood of Water Into
Main Part of City.
From Saturday's Dally-
Aii inch rain accompanied by a
hail storm visited Plattsmouth and
vicinity at the noon hour today and
for over an hour the rain inter
mingled with the hail pelted down on
the city.
Farther south of the city the rain
was reported as much heavier and
as the result shortly after 1 o'clock
a bank of water rolled down Chicago
avenue and into Sixth street and
thence into Main street. The sewer
at Tenth and Chicago avenue was
unable to carry the amount of water
rushing down the small creek which
was added to by the stream that
spread down the paving and rolled
on north to the main section of the
city.
Cars parked along South Sixth
street added' to the checking of the
water and forced the water and mud
up onto the walk on the west side of
the E. A. Wurl building. After effort
some of the cars were moved out of
the danger zone and permitted the
more rapid movement or tne water.
The cars also retarded grass and
debris to keep water from getting
into the sewers.
No overflow occurred from the
sewer on Washington avenue altho a
great deal of water flowed down the
paving following the heavy rain.
The bottom land east of the Bur
lington station was flooded by the
water from the overcrowded sewers
and from the Burlington viaduct that
emptied the streams out into the bot
tom land.
Precipitation to 3:30 p. ni., 1.21.
