Burke's Hill in Deloro (by Brenda Brooks Skof)
/1948 O'Brien St. (looking south)
Standing at the General Store in Deloro, and looking north up the street, you come to a small hill where the houses end (this hill appeared very big to us when we were children, today not so much) and we call this hill "The Crusher". Continuing northwards towards Malone, there was a straight road and then a huge hill and on the top of that hill was where the farms were (the Doyles, the Bedores, the Wileys, etc.). This was known as Burke's Hill, and it was a great place for us to watch the horse-drawn sleighs delivering the milk and other supplies, plus other activities.
