The next day, 7th December, they stopped for a quarter of an hour at Green River station. Snow had fallen abundantly during the night, but, being mixed with rain, it had half melted, and did not interrupt their progress.
Het had den geheelen nacht zwaar gesneeuwd, en de sneeuw, die vergezeld was van regen, was bijna gesmolten. Zij kon dus aan den trein niet hinderen.
