True Stories from the White Mountains

Dramatically capturing the destruction wreaked by the Cherry Mountain landslide, this photo was
a favorite of sightseers. It sold for 50 cents. Oscar Stanley is shown with his one-horned cow that was
rescued from the mud.
T
HROUGH MOST OF
JUNE OF 1885 New
Hampshire
residents
grumbled about the wet and
unseasonably cold weather. In
early July they had more reason
to complain. Violent thunderstorms had moved into the area.
And, wherever these thunderstorms struck, tragedy followed.
For example, on South Street in
Littleton, lightning did considerable damage to the house of
Theophilus Carbonneau. It also
mangled the foot of his ten-year
old daughter, crippling her for
life.
In Lancaster, Moses Kimball
and his son-in-law were examining a sick cow in the pasture
when lightning ended the animal’s life. The impact threw KimbalI violently backwards, and his
son-in-law temporarily lost his
eyesight.
At Jefferson Mills an errant
ball of lightning entered the home
of Charles Morse. As a consequence, two beds were set on fire
and his wife was rendered insensible for a time.
Then on Wednesday, July 8,
the weather took another unpredictable turn. Local thermometers shot past 90°. This heatwave,
however,. was shortlived. The
next afternoon the thunderstorms
returned accompanied by high
winds. Trees were uprooted,
bushes and shrubs blew away,
and telephone and telegraph
poles were extensively damaged.
That Friday morning damage by
the storm reached its climax by
unleashing one of the most
destructive landslides that has
ever occurred in the White
Mountains. At the time of the catastrophe, the homes of John
Boudreau and Oscar Stanley
stood in the path of a million tons
of debris that were traveling at
express-train speed down 3600-
foot Cherry Mountain in Jefferson.
The day before this dramatic
occurrence, Oscar Stanley, 49, a
hardworking, highly respected
farmer who lived near Jefferson
Meadows on the south side of the
Cherry Mountain Road, was
caught out in the storm. Shortly
after lunch that day he had set off
for Whitefield in his buggy to buy
materials necessary to set up a
cookstove in his nearly completed
new home.
Following the destruction of
his former home by fire on the
night of June 4, for five long
weeks his widowed mother
Moranda, 74, his wife Ellen, 37,
and his three daughters—Della,
18, Grace, 9, and Mora, 5, had
been staying a half-mile north at
his father-inlaw’s, John M. King.
As for himself, he had been sleeping in his barn which sat on the
opposite side of the road near the
newly laid tracks of the Whitefield and Jefferson Railroad.
Initially he had worked on the
rebuilding alone. However, after
collecting what little house insurance he had, the money enabled
him to hire two Whitefield brothers, Moses and Cleophas
McDonald, to help with the carpenter work. His regular hired
hand, Donald Walker, 23, who
was engaged to his daughter
Della, took care of the farm work.
At the end of each exhausting
day, the four men slept on beds
set up in the barn. Every morning
Del1a and Grace walked over to
make the beds, and to sometimes
serve dinners in the barn when
the weather was disagreeable.
Now, with the haying season
near and all but the ell completed,
Stanley decided to move his family into the uncompleted house
the next day. Preparing the meals
there, he knew, would save valuable time. For the moment,
though, his return from Whitefield was delayed. Finally, at 9:00
that night, he arrived back at the
barn.
On Friday, July 10, when he
awakened his men at daylight, he
was disappointed to find that it
was still raining. Despite this
fact, he led the brothers across
the road to the house following a
quick breakfast while Don Walker remained behind to milk the
cows.
Unknown to any of them,
shortly before 6:00 a.m. lightning
struck the bald spur known as
Owl’s Head which crowned the
north side of Cherry Mountain.
At nearly the same time two
thunderclouds collided directly
over the summit, releasing a
deadly downpour. Minutes later
giant boulders were dislodged
forty feet from the top. When
they landed on the saturated,
clay-based covering of the steep
north slope, the covering collapsed and began following rainswollen Stanley Brook down the
ravine.
Screaming and twisting its way
for a mile and a half down the
mountain the slide grew in vol-
ume and velocity. Along the way
it picked up nearly a million tons
of earth and stone along with
thousands of feet of fir, spruce
birch, and ash. When it broke out
into the open meadow just above
Boudreau’s shanty-like house, it
swallowed a bridge that crossed
the ravine. Its first victims were
Silas Marshall’s cattle that were
pastured just below there.
Boudreau, asleep when the
slide began, was awakened by the
deep rumbling that it made. At
first he thought it was distant
thunder. However, as the deadly
roar increased and his house
began to shake, he ran to a window and saw a sight that paralyzed him with fear. All he could
mutter was, “Mon Dieu! See him
come!”
Miraculously, Boudreau and
his family were spared only
because a bend in the channel of
Stanley Brook turned the slide
toward the opposite side of the
ravine. Though his house was left
standing, the main body of the
gigantic mass plowed down the
middle of his land. As it flew by,
some of the debris landed within
twenty feet of his door and huge
logs were hurled into his garden.
A quarter of a mile beyond,
Oscar Stanley’s attention was distracted by the same peculiar rumbling
sound
that
awoke
Boudreau.
“What is that?” he asked over
the sounds of saw and hammer.
One of the McDonald brothers
shrugged and replied, “Only a
train on the road.”
As the noise grew louder, a
strange vibration could be felt in
the house. Stanley now felt an
inexpressible feeling of fear.
“Boys,” he said, “it is something
terrible. Something awful is happening.”
Going to the door, he looked
toward the mountain. Through
the gently falling rain he saw a
forty-five foot high mass, which
was at least a hundred feet wide,
rushing toward the house. As
rolling boulders banged against
each other, flashes of fire shot out
from the sides.
Stanley screamed, “1’ m going
to get out of this! The mountain is
coming down!”
Propelled by the horror of the
•

moment, the three men ran
toward a wooden fence which
stood on higher ground just west
of the house. Momentarily looking back, they saw the monstrous
mass engulf the house. Arriving
at the fence, one of the McDonald
brothers was literally thrown
over it by the force of the wind
given off by the slide.
Stanley himself had the narrowest escape. He came within
eight feet of being drawn into the
debris.
Hurtling across the road, the
slide instantly destroyed the barn.
Then, with its fury spent by the
level ground, it slowed down and
spread out over twenty acres of
field. lt finally stopped just short
of the railroad tracks.
The road, now rendered
impassable, was covered by fifteen feet of debris spread out over
495 feet. Trees, boulders, and the
remains of the house were all a
part of it. Where the barn stood,
only the roof could be seen above
the mud.
Trembling uncontrollably, the
three men remained behind the
fence watching waves of watery
mud eight to ten feet high undulate past. Several minutes later
they realized that the danger was
over.
Stanley looked down at the
barn roof and cried, “Don Walker is a dead man!” But Walker
wasn’t. Hearing Stanley’s voice,
he painfully cleared dirt and gravel from his mouth and hoarsely
shouted “Help”
Reacting immediately, Stanley
ran to the roof and crawled in
under an open corner. Working
his way over the debris, he saw a
hand pushed up through the mud.
He also spotted Walker’s head
sticking out of the rubble.
Of that moment Stanley later
said, “I found where he was
buried in the ruins of the barn
though he looked like a dirty log.
I somehow lifted a stone from his
back that weighed, I should think
four hundred pounds. Also
another from his neck. His right
leg was all twisted up in the roots
of a tree, and his face was plastered with mud.”
After Stanley was joined by the
McDonald brothers, the three of
them dug away the debris holding
Walker down. Before he could

dragged out, his boots had to be
cut off to free his feet. Once he
was removed from under the
roof, it was evident that his legs
were severely damaged. He also
had deep cuts about the face and
head and his body was extensively bruised.
Laying Walker gently on a bed

crude litter. When it was finished,
he was carried to an open field.
Here the decision was made to
move him to John King’s ho

Toys Have Changed
Since I Was a Kid
Cyan Magenta Yellow Black
As I watch my grandchildren and their
friends play with their toys, I can’t help but
notice how dissimilar they are to those I grew
up with.
On Christmas morning, the December
after I turned eight, Santa brought me an Etch
A Sketch. Those of you who remember the little red rectangle know that after about three
hours practice, a kid could, by turning the
small, white knobs, draw a TV set that, if you
squinted a bit, looked a little like a disfigured
Etch A Sketch. This Christmas, my nephew,
Eli, received an iPad with which he can make
full length movies with sound and special
effects. With the push of a button, he can share
his creation with 4272 “friends” from Smalltown to Kyrgyzstan. He knows only 221 of
these “friends” and “likes” only 13 of them.
Most of these people will never see his video
because they each have thousands of “friends”
they don’t know posting fascinating comments
about the chicken noodle or curry poodle soup
they are eating.
I guess we were weird when I was growing
up in the hills of Smalltown. We actually went
outdoors to play war games. We’d go into the
woods, hike the hills, hide behind trees and
pretend to shoot at each other with wooden toy
guns.
“Bang, bang,” we’d yell. “I gotcha.”
“Did not.”
“Did too.”
“Did not; you missed me. I ducked.”
“No you didn’t.” (“No way” hadn’t yet
become part of the American lexicon.) “I
gotcha.”
And so it would go, on and on until one of
the older kids would say: “He gotcha Joey.
You’re dead, so shut up.”
These days the wars are conducted indoors,
in front of a big screen TV with no visible guns,
just hand held game controllers which allow
the young warrior to fire automatic weapons,
launch grenades or rockets and blow up entire
cities with one agile thumb movement. It all
looks and sounds very real and, best of all, not
only trains our little ones to be Soldiers of Fortune, but also teaches them the violent skills
required to excel at Grand Theft Auto and the
•

introduces them to the sadistic options for a
Thrill Kill; all without requiring them to break
a sweat or burn a calorie.
Houses were smaller and families were
larger back before “the pill” and the outdoors
was part of our living space. It was always
easy to muster enough kids for a game of football. We ran, tackled, and blocked our way to
fitness. There was no Madden 1965 to be
played in front of our black and white Sylvania TV set.
For Christmas in 1960, I got enough Lincoln Logs to build an entire village of wooden
buildings and I’m guessing Santa paid about
three bucks for the whole shebang. This year,
Santa brought a Lego Motorhome to my
grandson, Sumner. It came with motors,
lights, buzzers and more moving parts than an
F-150 pickup truck. I’m guessing it set the
man in the red suit back about $60. I spent 4
hours putting it together. (I might have assembled it in 3 hours had I peeked at the instructions.) Sumner played with it for 3 minutes
after which it took him only 30 seconds to tear
it apart.

Haverhill Corner Library Announces
Discussion of
Stories by Chabon, Lethem and Millhauser
HAVERHILL, NH—The Haverhill Corner
Library will hold its next Book Club for Writers discussion on Thursday, October 24, the
library has announced. The discussion will feature short stories by three contemporary,
prize-winning writers who are all interested in
the fantastic: Michael Chabon, Jonathan
Lethem, and Steven Millhauser.
Copies of Chabon’s “In the Black Mill,”
Lethem’s “Super Goat Man,” and Millhauser’s
“Cat ’n’ Mouse” will be available from the
library in advance. The discussion will begin at
7:00 PM and will be free and open to the public.
Winner of the Pulitzer Prize for his novel
The Amazing Adventures of Kavalier & Clay
and of the Hugo and Nebula awards for The
Yiddish Policemen’s Union, Michael Chabon is
the author most recently of Telegraph Avenue.
Chabon is known for blending elements of
genre and literary fiction in his writing. “In the
Black Mill” is purported to be the work of
August Van Zorn, a fictional persona that
Chabon has fashioned. Van Zorn is said to be a
writer of pulp horror stories in the tradition of
Lovecraft and Poe.
Jonathan Lethem’s novel Motherless
Brooklyn won the National Book Critics Circle Award for Fiction and his novel The
Fortress of Solitude was a bestseller. His most
recent book, Dissident Gardens, was just published last month. In 2005, he was awarded a
MacArthur Fellowship, the so-called “genius
grant.” Lethem is another writer known for
blending literary and genre styles, an approach
that characterizes “Super Goat Man,” a story
first published in The New Yorker.
Steven Millhauser won the Pulitzer Prize for
his novel Martin Dressler, but he is perhaps
best-known as a writer of short stories. Millhauser’s stories are reminiscent of Poe and
Borges; “his characteristic method,” says
Jonathan Lethem, “mingles dreamlike and
often morbid or perverse fantasies with meticulous realist observation.” Millhauser teaches
at Skidmore College and his collections include
In the Penny Arcade, The Barnum Museum,
and The Knife Thrower. Lethem says that “Cat
’n’ Mouse” appears in his own personal “Millhauser hall of fame.”
Book Club for Writers is a fiction discussion
program that meets four times a year. Discussions are open to all, and focus particularly on
questions of craft and technique that will interest writers and aspiring writers. Created by the
New Hampshire Writers’ Project, Book Club
for Writers is sponsored locally by a fiction
writing group that meets weekly at the Haverhill Corner Library.
The next Book Club for Writers discussion
will be held on Thursday, January 23, 2014
and will feature “Mister Squishy” by David
Foster Wallace, and two stories by George
Saunders, “In Persuasion Nation” and “The
Semplica Girl Diaries.”
