Newspaper Clippings, 1909, 1927

The newspaper clippings were removed from the Walter I. Dawkins diaries. The clippings from 1909 are mainly obituaries of Maryland men and women Dawkins may have known: James Whitehouse, Samuel F. Primrose, Jane Germon, Judge Conway Whittle Sams, and Teackle Wallis Blakistone. Also included are the engagement and wedding announcements of his niece, Mary Deming Dawkins, to Herbert S. Michael. In December 1909, a snowstorm blanketed the east coast and two clippings describe its impact on Maryland and Cleveland, Ohio. The 1927 clippings describe weather conditions that year: fog, summer heat, and winter snow in Maryland and elsewhere in the United States. Arrangement is by date.
