“the two strelow boys, robert and george, with john conrad, my two brothers, and i, put out into the storm for our homes. we had not gone a rod when we found ourselves in a heap, in a heavy drift of snow. we took hold of each other’s hands, pulled ourselves out, got into the road, and the cold north wind blew us down the road a half mile south, where the strelow boys and john conrad had to go west a mile or more. when they reached a bridge in a ravine, the little fellows sheltered a while under the bridge, a wooden culvert, but robert, the oldest, insisted that they push on thru the blinding storm for their homes. in the darkness they stumbled in, and by degrees their parents thawed them out, bathed their frozen hands, noses, ears and cheeks, while the boys cried in pain.“my brothers and i could not walk thru the deep snow in the road, so we took down the rows of corn stalks to keep from losing ourselves ’till we reached our pasture fence. walter was too short to wade the deep snow in the field, so henry and i dragged him over the top. for nearly a mile we followed the fence ’till we reached the corral and pens. in the howling storm, we could hear the pigs squeal as they were freezing in the mud and snow. sister ida had opened the gate and let the cows in from the field to the sheds, just as the cold wind struck and froze her skirts stiff around her like hoops. the barn and stables were drifted over when we reached there. the roaring wind and stifling snow blinded us so that we had to feel thru the yard to the door of our house. “the lamp was lighted. mother was walking the floor, wringing her hands and calling for her boys. pa was shaking the ice and snow from his coat and boots. he had gone out to meet us but was forced back by the storm. we stayed in the house all that night. it was so cold that many people froze.”
