On this date in the history of human beings (and mean old winds in the foggy mountains), in 1839, a devastating windstorm swept across Ireland, destroying around 20-25% of the houses in Dublin, killing hundreds, and wrecking 42 ships. In 1929, Mother Teresa arrived in Calcutta, India, where she worked for the rest of her life, helpinng the poorest folks in the city. In 1924, banjo picking machine Earl Scruggs was born somewhere near Boiling Springs, North Carolina. Scruggs would grow up to become one of the preeminent bluegrass banjo pickers of all time.
