1915.. 5,000 come to Snow Hill to see convicted murderer meet his fate; 1926.. Need for constructing a Chesapeake Bay Bridge being considered; 1957.. Princess Anne's Maryland State College is headed to a bowl game in Miami; 1852.. Duel between two prominent Somerset County men prevented; 1944.. Pocomoke City 4H-er takes top honors in Baltimore stock show; 1938.. It's just routine- a letter's long journey from Snow Hill to Girdletree.
Although you may not find all of these items in a history book, they are a part of our local history and you can read more about it this Sunday right here at The Pocomoke Public Eye.
Do you have a local memory to share with PPE readers.. such as a big snow storm, a favorite school teacher, a local happening, something of interest your parents or grandparents told you about? It can be just a line or two, or more if you wish. Send to tkforppe@yahoo.com and watch for it on a future TIME MACHINE posting!
