(Language Warning)
Cold Weather In New Kent.
[Correspondence of the Richmond Dispatch.]
Oak, Va., January 24.- The weather still coutinues fearfully cold. The average range of the thermometer for seven days past has been 1 degree below zero. Numbers of people are daily passing over the Pamunkey river to West Point.
There is much suffering among the poor and colored people throughout this section. Many birds of different species, hares, &c., are found daily dead in the woods, and should there not be a change for the better soon I fear not not only the birds will die, but that much stock will succumb.
-Richmond Dispatch, 25 January 1893
