The big news was Doc O'Boyle's nurse Linda Woodis being swept away down the waters of Doane Pond. Today there's a plaque on the brick spillway gatehouse off the Oakham Road. NB. More people were killed in the Hurricane of 38..over 500 than the Worcester Tornado.
The North Brookfield Historical Society did a marvelous presentation of the Hurricane of '38 a few years ago.
