Easter Sunday in New Ulm was marked by snowfall, which garbed the city in a lily-whiteness from gutter to chimney top, caused Easter finery to be relegated to its tissue paper wrappings to await another day, and turned the streets into coasting places for the kiddies, who were as happy as if Old Man Winter was just approaching around the corner, rather than edging his way out of the weather picture.

The day opened with a frown, as a big cloud bank obscured the sunrise. The wind was raw and had a breath of rain in it, and early in the afternoon snow commenced to fall. The wind veered to the northwest and drove the thermometer down in the bulb. The snow continued to fall until about ten o’clock when it abated. The fall was light, about an inch. During the night the clouds rolled away and clear skies greeted the morn. The thermometer dropped to zero, which is rather low for April.
