This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1916 edition. Excerpt: ...As stated in the headline to this diary the winter of 186162 was the most severe of any known in the Pacific Northwest from its earliest settlement. The first snow fall in the Willamette Valley occurred on November 15. Previous to that date it had rained hard almost continuously for several days in all the valleys on the coast, and at the same time there was a heavy fall of snow in the higher altitudes in the Cascade and Coast ranges. Then a sudden change to unusually warm weather occurred which melted the snow in these ranges and caused a flood in all the streams draining the valleys. Between the second and sixth of December the Willamette river was fifty-five feet above low water mark at Oregon City, and was at extra flood stage its entire length, thus causing a loss of property estimated at the time at a half million dollars. At Oregon City alone the damage was easily over $170,000. Then about the middle of December a "cold snap" came and lasted for fully two months, much of the time below freezing point, and occasionally below zero. During this period there were heavy falls of snow all over the country, both east and west of the Cascade range, and it remained on the ground in the western and southern Oregon valleys over fifty consecutive days, and in eastern Oregon a much longer time, with the temperature frequently below zero, and occasionally as much as thirty degrees. Altogether the floods and extreme cold weather following, prolonged as the latter was, caused a loss of property approximately one million dollars; and worst of all, a number of lives by drowning and freezing.--George H. Himes, Secretary. MEETING OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS.. Portland, March 13, 1916. The Board of Directors of the Oregon Pioneer Association...
