Weavers Enjoyed Storm at Coast, Aug. 31, 1924

Weavers Back from Summer Vacation

Mrs. W.W. Weaver and family of East Trinity avenue, together with Mrs. Weaver’s sister, Mrs. Griffin of Ohio, have returned home from their cottage at Fort Fisher where they have been spending the summer. They were at Fort Fisher during the recent severe storms along the Atlantic coast, and when warnings were being issued and residents of other beaches were seeking safety, they sat on their porch and enjoyed the grandeur of the storms. The coast down there being rock-ribbed, tidal waves are unable to reach the tops of the high banks during storms.
