Letter from C. E. Godshalk to Joy Morton stating that the weather has been poor: rain, changing to sleet, ultimately leaving more than a half inch of ice coating everything. Later that week, rain changed to a blizzard, and the temperature dropped to 5 degrees. The ice storm damaged many maples, poplars, willows, and some of the elms. They cut down the cedars around the form garden, and the Garden Show people will send a truck for them. They are moving lilacs north of his house to the Joliet Road planting. He enclosed a copy of a statement sent to him pertaining to DuPage County taxes. Scott, Egermann and Lambe of Naperville have been influential in starting a county organization working for the reduction of taxes. He is glad to hear they like Mexico City.
