This postcard, also by Mr. Phegley, shows the amount of snow along main street. The old limestone buildings in these photos still stand today..
This postcard shows a train engine stuck in the snow at Lincoln. The train was probably trying to clear the tracks of the deep drifts. The photo was taken by Lincoln photographer George Phegley. The 1912 blizzard was one of the worst in the county's history..
